Hi!

Coming up for air for a bit. Things have been insanely busy, here since
right before Thanksgiving. Mostly just 'busywork' like chauffering kids or
errands and meetings keeping me from spending lots of time on the NG. Have
been lurking, posting quickly when there is something unique I can add.
Otherwise, I send good wishes and prayers with needed without replying to
posts. Its the best I can do right now.

Ian is now taking violin lessons and loving it. He's doing a lot better in
school, now that he is getting some special services for reading and
writing. Becka has decided to go back to flute, after not taking lessons for
7 years. She's having trouble with grades this semester - a problem since
its the critical Junior year and she's taking an impressive array of honors,
AP and arts classes - and just got a C in her AP class - really bad for
college applications. Hoping having the emotional outlet of music will help
her feel more balanced, leading to more commitment to her work.

I did teach a cooking class last month for the synagogue which took a fair
amount of prep; I'm doing two more this Spring. I'm also co-leading a Sunday
morning class on Hebrew reading and synagogue skills. And now that our
facilitator for our monthly movie night has moved, guess who will be filling
in? Oh - And I just spent the last day and a half trying to keep water in
only one part of our basement.

Now to get to what the subject line indicates - Seems the RA is being
stubborn for the moment. I'm moving better on the Methotrexate/Plaquenil
combo, but my labwork and my hands (plus fatigue) indicate the RA is far
from under control. So my RD is switching out the Plaquenil for Enbrel.
According to BC/BS, that means using one of their 'specialized' mail order
Pharmacies. Has anyone had good/bad experiences with any of the following:
Caremark, Inc,. Curascript, OTN Services, or Specialtyscripts?
