I complained way too early about not being asked to pay anything yet. Today the compounding pharmacy called me to confirm all the medications and supplies ordered by my RE. All of the following except the Progesterone suppositories (good for only a month so will be sent separately closer to egg retrieval time in a few weeks) will be sent by FedEx Overnight to arrive on Saturday, since I don’t want to deal with curious looks from the receptionist at work. And yes, I did confirm that he wants me to take both Progesterone injections and suppositories 😦 Here’s the itemized cost breakdown:
So there goes almost $4000 onto the emergency credit card. I plugged everything into the Freedom Fertility Pharmacy medication quote calculator, and they ran $400 higher than this, without the Diazepam and supplies. I’m confident this is the best deal I can get, short of buying from Canada and dealing with slow shipping and customs. I’m assuming this pharmacy has an agreement with my RE, because the pricing for Gonal-F, Novarel, Progesterone (both forms), and Menopur is definitely better than I’ve seen comparing on GoodRx. Still, I’m hoping that 80% reimbursement from insurance happens quickly, because with estimated taxes due September 15, it’s going to be a dicey month otherwise!
