Finally approved! (self.ankylosingspondylitis)
submitted 1 year ago by LunarSC to c/[email protected]
 

I finally got approved by insurance for a biologics prescription!! After 1.5 years of chronic pain, 4 months of waiting for a rheumatology appointment, and 2 months of trying medications that gave me constant migraines and other horrible side effects, I was prescribed Simponi today and I'm awaiting it's delivery ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ˜

Shout out to my insurance for laying on an extra 2 months of breathing pain and many sleepless nights so they can save money! ๐Ÿ–•

Congratulations! I'm currently experiencing a flare up and SO frustrated with our healthcare system, so well done on getting the medication you need! I hope it works for you!
