Neuro Visit

I had a great visit with my neuro today. She was happy about the results after the Ocrevus infusions. She wanted to schedule an MRI but the copay for that isn't in my budget right now since we are paying the copay for my broken arm and the copay from my husband's heart cath. I told her I would be able to after my next visit in April. She ordered blood panels and the works. I should get those back next week. So far so good! I have a visit with my orthopedic dr tomorrow & hopefully be able to take the splint off of my arm. I am ready to start using it again. It has been 2 months or 58 days, 4 hrs, 29 minutes since I broke it but who's counting? :-) I really didn't think I was going to make it through with a cast on, but after 3 casts and a splint, I made it! I have learned over these past months not to take anything for granted. You can lose anything & everything at the drop of a hat, or wheelbarrow in my case. Be thankful for what you have. I'm even thankful for what I've learned from a broken arm. For me with everything that seemed like a set back in my life has ended up as a blessing including MS. Having MS has given me a whole new outlook on life. Stop to smell the roses when you pass by them as you may not be able to later. Enjoy all that you can in life because it is shorter than you think. See God in all of the world's beauty, you won't regret it.

Are you part of the Ocrevus copay assistance program? I get my deductible for the year knocked out with my Ocrevus infusion. Ocrevus paid $5500 of my $5600 yearly deductible. Got my hysterectomy for free this year. Now I only pay for out of network stuff.

Glad you are doing well!

Look into it if not. I'm on Aubagio and once they've paid for my January pills my out of pocket is done so I can get anything else covered through the year.

Yes, I am on their program. I am getting the drug for free but have a pay copay on the facility.

What a beautiful reflection. God is in everything, even the "bad" can have life affirming results.

Peace
