I just reordered my script a few minutes ago from my compounding pharmacy. I was happy to confirm that they still do it the same way and the price at $120 for the 10ml hasn't changed.

My compounder dispenses my 10ml order in ten 1ml vials which is pretty nice. They also throw in a couple of bags of syringes if ask, although not my favorite size. And, I just discovered that they also, if asked, throw in 100 BD brand alcohol prep pads. I have nothing but good to say about my compounder. Unfortunately for most of the rest of you guys they only ship within Florida.

My last order was a double order as I wanted my 2 remaining refills filled before my script expired. The pharmacy reminded me that that was in April of 2018.

I'm now using the last 1ml vial from that 2018 batch, which I kept frozen in the back of my freezer. I didn't realize it was quite that old. It still works just fine with only a very minimal increase of dose needed.

I believe dispensing it in the ten 1ml vials helps a bunch. The vials I'm not using stay in the back of the freezer where they freeze solid. The one I'm using goes in the front of the freezer where it usually doesn't actually freeze solid. The mix is in saline so I guess it has to be in the back to get cold enough for the salt water to freeze.

I think I'll start out a little lite on my first shot out of the new batch.

I love my mono-mix. It works wonders for me.

Bldoink--I will be renewing my last refill with my pharmacy here in California tomorrow. I get 4 each 2.5ml vials. Keep one in the fridge and all others in the freezer until needed. I also keep about 6 syringes loaded in the fridge ready for action. I keep half loaded with my dose (15 unites) and half with 10 unites which gives me about an hour and a half for free time.

Went and picked up my new script today. 75 miles round trip on the superslab. Hadn't ridden the scoot in a good while so thought it was a good opportunity. 75 F but windy and overcast. I got worried about rain but just briefly hit the slightest smidge of a mist on the return. Traffic was a bit thick for off hour and fast. My tires are kinda old so I would've preferred slower but 85+ it was. Perfect temperature though, even if the wind did detract some. There and back in hardly more than an hour and new joy juice.

Can you tell me the name of your pharmacy? I'm in CA and looking for one - my HMO's pharmacy provides only one formulation and I need a stronger mix.
