 1  R.A. headache fatigue lowered resistance didn’t sleep for days The stress over paying the co pay on this hiked up drug has far outweighed the good it did, and the hospital would not let my insurance get it at the 6 dollar co-pay I was told I had for coverage I spent the next few months trying to get better and fighting with the billing office, totally depressed and stressed out, and have been going without treatment and am having a relapse. It’s overpriced. F 61 6 months
