Actually, the follistim expired some time ago, so I gave it away. :)<BR/><BR/>I was fortunate enough to pick up some donated menopur, it's about to expire and I'll be using it as it does. Hopefully that won't make any difference.<BR/><BR/>I checked out the website, Pam, but they require prescriptions from a Canadian Dr. Thanks anyway.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00162624583693445058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5591529948659582216.post-43582707834330818452009-03-05T11:33:00.000-05:002009-03-05T11:33:00.000-05:00I'm not if you can, but I've heard of some people ...I'm not if you can, but I've heard of some people in the US ordering their meds from Canada. These guys - http://glenshieldspharmacy.com/ are one of the places they look at, and they've got a price list right on their website allowing you to make a reasonable comparison....plus they prices are in canadian funds. :)Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03154636161249104743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5591529948659582216.post-45619684557582043312009-03-04T23:01:00.000-05:002009-03-04T23:01:00.000-05:00Wow!

My goodness. I'm...Eight grand for meds is INSANE! My goodness. I'm glad you called around. <BR/><BR/>Sometimes docs will let you use expired meds. Nothing magical happens on the expiration date, after all. My doc allows patients to use meds up through about one month post expiration, so maybe the Follistim is still a contender. <BR/><BR/>Also, last cycle I called around and ended up saving a ton by getting the meds from the cheapest source. I got the HCG from pharmacy 1, the Meno.pur from pharmacy 2, and so on. Counting my local pharmacies, I probably used about five pharmacies in all. Yeah. I'm cheap. :-) But why pay more when a little bit of juggling can save you lots of dough?Pepperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11776234917145422506noreply@blogger.com
