I just agreed

Any news yet?

I just agreed to try it too....this will be my first medication, and I anticipate insurance issues since my doc has said 2 of his 12 patients wanting to try it have had approval right off the bat.

Curious.

I'm currently in my 3rd week. My insurance approved it, and I applied for the Biogen copay program, so far so good. I was actually really surprised how easy it was. Caremark is our prescription carrier anyway, so I suspect that helped with the transition.

As far as the med goes...not too bad. My first 1.5 weeks were pretty easy, but I've been gradually accumulating worsening side effects - mostly stomach PAIN and flushing, which is down right horrible sometimes - and sometimes non-existent. So weird.

Good luck to you!
