Glenda's journey with prescribed treatments

[glenda grant]

tomorrow is my Enbrel shot and will have to remember to take it out for awhile so it can warm up a little.I tried it straight out of the refrigerator and it stung like a bee.I had to call and order for next month as this is my last pen.I called the Enbrel support team and they have put $6000 on a debit card to help me with the co-pays and out of pocket expense.I won't have to pay for 6 months and then in July they will put another $4000 on my card.I am so thankful for their help at least it's one less worry.Can you believe it costs $3000 for 4 shots.I am very happy they are helping me stay on my meds.My PSA is better and am hopeful the skin will come along in time.There are alot of people that have no insurance and I really feel bad for them.They have to suffer and shouldn't have to.i will keep everyone posted on my progress.As Fred has said before what works for one person maybe won't work for some one else.We have to keep trying till we find what works for us.I really feel bad when young children get this dreaded disease.I was fortunate to have gotten it later in life.Although I suspect I had scalp psoriasis and pitted nails as a teenager and back then didn't know what was wrong.
