Rhumy Update

[Guest guest]

Saw my rhumy this morn,basically nothins changed.My bloodwork is acually even better than last visit so that is excellent as last visit he said everything looked normal .I go for Bone scan in Nov,we did talk about switching to Fosamax sounds alot better but will cost me out of pocket 10 dollars week(im bad taking my other calcium supplement as its 2 part med and you need an empty stomache).He said we will wait to see what bone scan says,he said maybe i dont need the calcium supplement as im on low-dose pred(yeah i dont agree with that!!!).Maybe next visit i can ask about few other issues he does seem to be in hurry all time.The streets are like a skating rink at least the sanding trucks finally made it out,slip sliding away comin back i counted 33 vehicles in ditch and its only a half hour drive .Take care all. d.Canada P.S im to keep my meds the same,because i told him about the night sweats i was getting for few days week ago(if next visit he doesnt say start cuttin pred,im going to insist at least i try)

Hi ,

Do you by chance live in the Thunder Bay area? Also, what is Fosamax? I think $10 a week is pretty cheap, espicially since when my family had only 80% insurance coverage, my out of pocket expences were $500 a month!! Lucky now, it is 100% covered! I had a bone scan in June and I guess I lit up like a Christmas tree. Good luck and drive safe!

Yes Traci i agree as you,its just like going to cafe & having breakfast for 10 bucks.I havent figured out what i pay out of pocket but its not 500 i know that!! Fosamax i think is a bone builder to prevent osteoperosis,my other kit is a pain it the butt would be alot easier to take this once a week,instead of everyday & havta worry about having no food or milk products for 2 hours prior & after.Take care . d.Canada
