Mine pretty much tries, but he thinks I have to "toughen up" and work out more. Oh, and I totally get the spouse not completely understanding. I'll just wait patiently while the red tape clears. I'm on MTX injections already, which help, but not completely - which is why the Enbrel is getting added in. They do not keep samples of Enbrel at this office, so thats out. My dr also makes sure I always have a prescription for prednisone if things should go seriously south for me while he is not in the office, so I'm ok with that. I've gone to the other one, and she was so abbrasive and it just wasn't a good fit for me.

They have been looking for a full time one for a while now, but they are hard to come by. I will most likely have to do this because this one is retiring this summer, and they only have 1 other who is also only there part time. If I switch it will mean a minimum of 80 miles to one. Yes, I've thought about switching to another rheumatologist, but I really like this one and I only have to travel 12 miles to his office. Take care, let me know how it goes for you. One of the nicest parts of this forum is that people understand since they too are experiencing it as well. Oh well, at least my children understand part of what I am going through and they are a bit more helpful than other family members. The sad part is that my wife does not understand what it feels like and sometimes she just gets frustrated with me. Hang in there, I know from personal experience how painful RA can be.
So it took four weeks before I was receiving regular shipments containing four SureClick injectors of medication. Enbrel should be injected on the same day each week.
The process with my insurance took three weeks, initially my doctor's office gave me two sample injectors, I had to ask for another one before I received my prescription in the mail the day I needed to inject. The next time you have an appointment, or even when someone is in the office, ask if the office can give you samples of Enbrel until the approval process has been completed. I do not know if there are other rheumatologists near where you live, but when I am hurting, a part-time rheumatologist would not be good enough, especially if I had a flair in RA at the beginning of his two weeks off. Things did not work out with this rheumatologist, so I have been with the doctor I was scheduled to see first, I have been with my current rheumatologist since January of 2016. I thought to myself "this doctor has no clue what pain level I am at." So I found another rheumatologist and had an appointment the next week. The first appointment he had available was in late June. When I was first diagnosed with RA, I was referred to a rheumatologist. Of all the specialties of medicine, one would think the rheumatologist would allow new patients to come in a begin treatment immediately. The is per insurance company requirements. I have to get my Enbrel through Accredo Specialty Pharmacy. I had the card even before my Enbrel prescription was approved by the insurance company. When I applied for the Enbrel support card I called 888-4ENBREL and they took care of collecting the information over the phone and applied the support card number to my account automatically.
