Hi Cathy,
I started my first injection of Tymlos 6 days ago. It’s a tier 5 drug with a PA needed with my Medicare advantage plan. I was very hesitant starting without a PA approval but I did. Well the PA got denied, now my doctor is appealing. I paid $1089 for the first 30 day supply. If appeal is denied I will have to seek assistance. I can’t afford to be self pay. As it is I will be paying $2100 for a 3 quarters of the year. Why the government doesn’t allow the savings programs is beyond me.
Regarding the injections, I am doing ok. I take my injection at 9pm and go to bed and read. I had some nausea last night for the first time. Hopefully that will not happen often.
Good luck
