I have survived this day. It only took a ton of phone calls and the pharmacy tech I delt with was a rock star, I really need to find out how I can send feedback, she helped me last time.
So good things- it turns out that I don't have to meet my deductible to get a co pay for my prescription
bad thing - my prescription co pay is $80 not $20 as they said on the phone.
other good thing - the coupon I had from the company brought it down so I only have to pay $20 for the next 11 prescriptions. (well 12, but I used it this time).
Other good thing because I watched some videos for Blue cross they sent me a coupon good for a $25 gift card.

You can usually renew those when the 12 prescriptions are up. Tim uses one for his otherwise $2K-a-month rheumatoid arthritis med.
Thanks for the info Steph.
I will go through the 11 remaining refills in less than 12 months. Because the prescription is 20 mg capsules and I'm supposed to take1 of those and 1 of the 10 mgs (for a total of 30 mgs) for 4 days, and if I don't see a big improvement I'm going to go up to 40 mgs and take that until the prescription runs out and then a get a new prescription for.. . I don't know, either 40 mgs or higher.
But it took 10 or 15 minutes just to sort that out. It's been very confusing.

Good to know. I have one of those coupon things for Lyrica. Though, my prescription is for more than I typically take, so I don't hit 12 refills in 12 months - but I should still be able to start a "new" 12 months after my current set expire, right?
We went out to eat with everyone when TCG got home. I'm happily drunk on a margarita. The company was actually quite nice. I was just anxious for no reason. TCG's cousin's kids are the sweetest teenagers ever. I'm going to see if they can help me out a bit this summer with ltc.
So, I am going to take it as a sign of good parenting when your adult child brings you home a brownie to celebrate the date.
Very nice, Laura. It is kinda odd being outside of Colorado today. Though it also means no Columbine news stories.
The stadium just played "Pass the dutchie" between innings!!! Too funny!!!
It amuses me that making that meal is what Vortex does when she *doesn't* want to cook. What would be actual "cooking", Vortex?
Well, I didn't really mean to. I was just going to heat it up, but then it was less than I thought, I needed to bulk it up, so I just diced up a potato real quick. And then I realized I'd been carb loading for a while, so I needed to add something healthy (as healthy as you can be frying something in bacon fat). And the rest is history.
