I am so wiped out today. I am not sure as to why this is the case. I have respiratory sx,; yet, I think they are allergies. I am exhausted an am having cognitive difficulties. The only thing I have changed is the Seroquel; last night was my second night of decreasing it by just 25 mg, which is a 50% decrease.

I have a lot on my "to do" list today. So far, I have to scrap the list. I will have to take it up tomorrow. They are all tasks with immediate deadlines.

There was a big mix-up with my Enbrel today and the pharmacy was asking me for an over $600.00 co-pay today. It took an hour or so to get is squared away. Luckily, it was no more difficult than that. I am very fortunate, in that Amgen (the drug manufacturer) pays my monthly co-pay for now, as a part of their "good will" program.... or something like that. When you see Enbrel, Humira and similar meds advertised (as wonder drugs), please note these drugs cost $5500. to $7000. per MONTH! Outrageous! Luckily, Amgen is picking up the bill for co-pays in some instances. My current co-pay is $642./month. . I would never be able to afford it otherwise. I have not been on Enbrel for very long and I do not yet know if it will work for me.

I am having very difficult nights. I hope they improve soon.
I am hopeful!

Much Love!
