The Verdict is In....

And, I'm getting stuck paying the $120 for it. Plus the $20 for administering the shot.

Nursey P tried to get my back, but no dice-the prescription insurance place said that they're already giving it to me at a discounted rate, since it's a non-preferred drug (gee, thanks! That's....uh......."generous" of you, considering that I have insurance coverage). They said that I could try to submit the balance to major medical insurance to see if they'd reimburse it, but otherwise, cough up the cash, sista!

Well, at least she tried. Nursey P's good like that-she'll try anything to see if shit's covered and you don't have to pay out of pocket. And, it's this particular medication that isn't covered (other injectibles are).......hmmm......maybe Cat is right about her RhoGAM theory (go look in the comments for that one). Fuck-faces.

Damn, I sure wish that Sean frickin' signed up for that Medical Savings Account last year, then we could at least have been reimbursed for a lot of the shit we paid out (like freezing our embryos, the monitoring fees), but he dropped the ball, as usual. That's the one thing that seriously pisses me off about him-if he doesn't understand something, or can't deal with it, he just won't do anything about it and let it resolve itself (otherwise known as avoidance), just like his mother does. Nice, huh? *sigh*.......

So, I'll suck it up, pick up the shot at the Walgreens-from-Hell and have to go tomorrow afternoon to have Nursey P stick it in my ass. Can't wait.

Makes you wonder why we even have jobs to pay for insurance, doesn't it? I mean, the freebies are amazing.
Sorry you were stuck with that. Speaking of being stuck, hope the shot wasn't too painful.
And again, I am sorry for your ordeal. Hope you're feeling somewhat better.
