Yes MJ, Sandy should have my FQ. Mailed hers and Ritasmom at the same time. I use the manila envelopes also.

Has been a stressful day - not just because the internet. Called BCBS this morning, asking about coverage, when I learned that because I "upgraded" my policy with a lower deductible in March, with my premium more than doubling, everything I was treated for last year is now excluded from coverage. Those kinds of trainwrecks are exactly what drives me to binge on everything, but it was not even a consideration. Now, more than ever, I HAVE to get my weight WAY DOWN to be good to my knees. DH still wants me to order the Synvisc and get it injected - our cost is $800 from a Canadian RX.

Thanks for listening to me whine.

Can't wait for an update from Missy.
Lynne,
Have you check with the pharmacies in India? I ordered my dh meds there and saved hundreds. We could see no difference, they even came in the same package.

I'm not recommending either way, just letting you know there may be a less expensive solution.
I've been researching medical procedures in India, they call it "medical tourism". Much less expensive with the same results.
