So….I faxed my application into my doc for Tecfidera on March 29. They received it. I gave blood for labwork on April 2. The results were very good and back in by April 3. I have been anxiously awaiting the phone call from Biogen to set up delivery of my new meds. When I still hadn’t heard anything yesterday, I decided to ask my doc if she knew anything. I was given a number for Biogen to check the status of my application. Low and behold, they never received it! Evidently, my doc faxed in 8 applications at once and 2 of them didn’t go thru…mine being one of them! I re-faxed everything last night, my doc spent quite a bit of time on the phone with Biogen and hopefully, I will get a call soon to set up delivery!!! I am so glad I called to follow up!
I have 1 needle prick left. I’ve been taking my daily meds once every 3-4 days lately. I’m looking forward to sticking myself and all the drama that goes along with it one last time tonight. I won’t miss it at all…I just wish I had my new meds to take in its place!
I’ll let y’all know when I get to start the new oral drugs…it’s going to be soon now, I hope!

This is good news. I hope you don’t have to go too long without meds. I got staples out of my ankle today… no cast, just a big boot! Doctor said I can probably start driving after I see him May 2. Going to be a long 3 weeks! Buut it could have been a lot worse!
Take care. Love You. Mother
