Doesn't work. Do I have spelling correct?

It's Copays dot org -- the same word as the amount patients pay after insurance pays their share, plural form, dot org.

I'm sorry, I tried to update the title.

Looking into this for my Mom.

but starting in 2020 it got so nothing worked anymore and the asthma wouldn't go away. Two things finally fixed it that I want to share in case it could help someone else.

1. I was tested for Eosinophils and found to have Eosinophilic asthma and put on Nucala.

2. I had gastric bypass. The week before I had to cut down to 600 calories/day mostly in protein shakes, Jello and broths. It was meant to get your liver to decrease in size so they could operate. After a few days on this restriction I could breath! And then of course after the surgery I kept losing weight. I haven't had asthma like that since. My doctor told me that obesity can cause bad asthma because the fat pushed on your stomach and the acids go up your esophagus and into your lungs. That is why I chose the bypass instead of a stomach staple or other less intrusive surgeries. The way they rearranged my insides it up it is very hard for the acid in my stomach to move up the esophagus now.

Now I do not need the Nucala. Just Symbicort and occasionally the rescue inhaler.

Just FYI in case any of this applies.

For 20+ years I have been ordering my Advair from Canada. Just to see if anything had changed, this past Thanksgiving I asked my local pharmacist what my copay would be.

The answer was, "$225-shall we order it?"

My response, "no thanks..I get mine from Canada for $26/each so when I order 3 months worth, it's still costs less than $100"


My go-to pharmacies:
Canada Drugs Online, Northwest Pharmacy, Prescription Point
Even if I order it from Canada, they are sent from various other places, like New Zealand, Israel, India, Turkey, etc. One can't get them overnight, but rather, in about 3 weeks, so plan for delays in shipping.
