Run me over!

Why? Just why? They are messing with my modafinil! I need it! Or I'm gonna look like her and someone is gonna have to do traffic duty! 🛑🤣😂🤗💕👻

Oh, sorry you are having trouble getting your meds. I know how you feel when they mess with your meds. If it's not the doc it's the insurance. It's the insurance that really gets me. Those people sit behind a desk. They know nothing about medical procedures or drugs, nor do they know anything about us. Yet they try to control the who, what, and when(s) of everything medical. Praying you can get it worked out soon!

I know it's crazy! Everything has to approve then approved again and again! It's enough to pull your hair out!😨 But I will fall asleep if I don't get it soon! 😂🤣🤗💕👻

[hairbrain4 in reply to Jesmcd2]

Use ice packs on your face & neck to stay awake. I used to have to take that med. So glad I don't anymore.

[Tazmanian in reply to hairbrain4]

Have your doctor send in a letter of medical necessity

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Tazmanian]

Tis all straightened out! 😁 !🤗💕👻

[mrsmike]

Wow, that's how I feel today! Hope everyone else is doing better. Sorry about your meds. I know the approvals can drive one crazy.

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to mrsmike]

If you can’t sort it out, then no one can. It’s not right that they mess with your meds, some meds are life threatening. Keep us updated 🤗 🍫 💐

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to jimeka]

It's just a pain in the butt! They say they did this, they don't. Follow up on that, they didn't. I forgot who I'm supposed to call now!!!🤣😂🤣😂🤗👻

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador]

Well, at least they didn't paint the center line over them!

[Juliew19673]

So rough and so sorry you have to deal with this!

[Morllyn]

I know what you mean!😲

[Doubled51]

I hear you Jesmcd2 they mess with my Modafinil they got a fight on their hands. Without it I’m def a couch potato and I don’t like sitting on the couch all day. I’ve been taking it since dx so I ain’t giving it up now.

Insurance will be starting over new soon so imagine I’ll have the same fight. I take 400 mg every day so they buck up on me at renewal.

It’s truly my lifeline.

Good luck.

I’m sorry.

[kdali]

That’s scary, I’m so sorry!

[Tulip77]

I could not work without mine!

[leking1]

I know exactly what you mean! Mine was approved fine, but my insurance went up on the co-pay price 143%!

[pamgarner]

there are days I do feel like that! uurrgghhh!

[twooldcrows]

i am sorry that they are messing with your meds...take care and maybe they are getting something better for you ...or just they are having problems getting them...

I've been on modafinil (Provigil) since I was diagnosed with ms in 2000. Every time my health insurance changed I had to have my Dr. work with the insurance company. When Obama care started, and I had to search for a drug plan in the Marker Place, the cost was very high. It is considered a Tier 5 drug. It is also a controlled substance. Luckily for me I am a veteran and the VA now takes care of my prescription but I had the same trouble getting them to approve the prescription. Once it was approved the VA requires me refill it every 30 days.

When I was trying to find drug coverage I also checked on the price in Canada. It was almost exactly the same price.

Don't give up the fight!

Good luck!
