UPDATE: my neuro’s office told me they reached out to the drug company to set up a bridge and I should expect a call from them. A bridge is what we call interim doses of medications for this exact circumstance (ie, delays in paperwork processing). I didn’t get a call, so I called. 20 minutes of hold time and 15 helpful minutes of speaking to a human, the ball is rolling. Downside is that it’s Friday and have to wait until Monday to call my neuro to have them call my RX into this different agency, because it’s after 5 on a Friday. I’ll run out of meds on Sunday. Since I’ve already halved my dose in an effort to prolong having this drug in my system, I already am experiencing the side effects when you is a dose. This is flushing. It BURNS and it’s itchy and it happens about 3-5 hours after i take my morning dose and last about 30-45 minutes. #adventureswithtecfidera #overit #toomanyphonecalls #livingwithms #msproblems #keeponkeepingon #cantstopwontstop
