I need to find a pharmacy that will bill my SC

BCBS for infusion meds. The NC place that Dana

helped me find that said they could can't because

it goes through NC BCBS somehow. Angie called


from Dr. J's at 5:45 today. I am out of meds as

of tonight. If anyone knows of a SC pharmacy

please let me know.

Thanks so much
mimi

Dear Mimi,

Hang in there. You will find a place to get what you need. It is a matter of searching it our which is unfair and very hard when you are sick and upset.

Do you have a friend or family member that could assist you in search?

Also, do you have the saline and heparin on hand?
Listen, you can keep that line by flushing it daily. We have taken 10 day hiatus when traveling and it did not hurt the line. You can buy time.

I am posting to reach our SC members. I think they may be able to help.

I'm not sure if this will work for your specific situation. My insurance company will cover the IV med, but not the home care and supplies. I get a script for the medicine and the flushes from the doctor and bring them to a participating pharmacy in my area. While they do not stock the medicine, the do order it and it usually arrives the next day. This way you can use any participating pharmacy and just pay your co-pay. I then mail the medicine to a home infusion pharmacy in FL that will mix the medicine free of charge and provide IV supplies at cost for Lyme patients. If you are in a hurry, you can overnight it to them and they will overnight it back. They have been great to deal with. You can find all their contact info at their website - infuserveamerica.com

I have used infuserve as well. They're a great company.

If you give them a call they may be able to help as they dispense IV meds as well as supplies.

They are in Florida but will ship anywhere.
