Xolair Injections During Travel Outside Home Area

Updated

I am on a 2-week schedule and would like to travel around the western states. Also on Medicare. Am stumped on how to schedule with different drs and or hospital infusion rooms. Last travel time I was on once a month and the medicine was shipped to me. I carried it to the administrator and even that was difficult.

Have you discussed it with your doctor?

They may be able to help you coordinate things.

Years ago, when I was on allergy shots and was on tour, I was able to just carry the vials with me, then I'd stop in a local walk-in clinic, each week, and just pay them a small fee to administer the shot. My doctor had printed up an instruction sheet to carry with me.

Dr. wasn't much help. More recently I have spent months in Myrtle Beach. The injection nurse talked with the Xolair rep and he referred to someone who received drug. That worked til Medicare. Shifted to an infusion room at hospital as Dr claims that new rules under Medicare makes it cost him $$ to administer. So, if things are changing it may be even more difficult than last time I travelled, before Medicare and before the black box warning that insists that a physician administer the dose.
