The doctor's office has to initiate that for you because it's based on medical justification. I believe it was our MO that called and got it. The price is rediculous but it was the only thing that worked for him. Also it won't be an ongoing expense for Aetna so they should approve it.
The extra hydration is a great idea and you are right that things will get worse before they get better. Even though we had discussed that Jack was still shocked when that happened, but it does pass. Pat will start to feel better and take those salsa lessons. She'll be finishing up right before Cinco de Mayo so maybe that will bring her luck.
Regards JoAnne
