My GP trusted my judgement for some reason. I think he was amused.

Is this where you went?

Yes. I was referred by my cardiologist. I'm kicking myself for waiting so long. A very positive experiance.

No and my Uro who initially wrote the script for Edex (he retired) didn't do a trial either. Just gave me the script and left me to figure it out on my own at home. While I liked my Uro I think he failed me on that one. Most will do an in office test injection, as they should. My GP figured correctly that I already pretty much knew what I was doing as I'd been on the Edex for a good while.

Initially my insurance covered Edex/Caverject but only to the tune of about 4 per month. I don't recall the co-pay. Then they quit covering it altogether. Thank goodness for the compounded mono-mix, which I consider very cheap.

For some reason my new Uro will only prescribe tri-mix and only from one pharmacy in the Tampa area that I've never dealt with. I haven't worried about it as by the time I got the new Uro I'd already had trained my GP and also her replacement after she left. I've never tried tri-mix. The mono-mix works just fine for me so why should I?

How much did you pay for your mono mix at the compound pharmacy. I think I paid $85 for 20MCG/ML

I believe it's $120 for 10, 1ml vials at 80mcg per ml. In other words $120 for 10ml @ 80mcg per ml. I like that it comes in the 10, 1ml vials as I keep them in the back of the freezer except the one I'm using which I keep in the front of the freezer. The one in the front is usually liquid when I pull it out. The ones in the back stay in frozen form. I guess the saline it's in makes it hard to freeze solid.

I'm in the Tampa Bay Area and my uro referred me to Lincoln Court Pharmacy in Clearwater but said I could try any compounding pharmacy I wanted to. I called them about my script 40/30/1 and they gave me a quote for $125 for 10ml(5 - 2ml vials) and I didn't think that was bad so I went with them. It was nice dealing with them and I think they offer free local delivery. One of the pharmacists came down to talk to me about using Trimix and had it packaged in a nice bubble wrap padded bag that had an ice pack in it and gave me his personal cell number and told me to call if I had any issues.

That's a good price. I pay about $75 for 2 2-ml vials.

I get a discount when I buy the second one. I'm not sure if I get more discount if I order more than 2 at a time.
