After weeks of calling and checking the portal, my refill finally shipped today and should be here in a couple days. I was starting to sweat it since I am down 14 lbs and really did not want to lose momentum. Does anyone else's pharmacy cut it this close every single month, or did I just get lucky with a weird cycle?
Sourcing & reviews
Todays refill finally came through
Mine's cut it close the last two months too, and I'm in Raleigh so maybe it's regional. Are you calling them or just watching the portal?
Every single month for me too, and it's always the same week I'm due. I've started checking the portal earlier than I need to just so I'm not sweating it at the last minute
Mine seems to hit the wire no matter what, so I stopped trusting the portal estimate and just call the day the last pen goes in.
Mine sat at shipped for four days before it moved, so the tracking number was basically useless
Mine seems to land right when I'm down to the last couple of pens, so it's not just you. The portal updates are useless though, I usually just end up calling.
Mine sat at "processing" for four days before it actually moved, so the shipped notice was the easy part. Did yours show a delivery date yet?
Mine sat in "processing" for six days last month and then just appeared on my porch. Do you get any kind of shipping notice or are you stuck refreshing the portal like I was
Mine has cut it close twice now and both times the portal showed nothing until the day it shipped. Do you request a week ahead like the first poster, or just wait for the refill button to light up?
Mine cut it close twice in a row and then suddenly got fast, no rhyme or reason to it. The portal is basically useless for predicting anything.
mine seems to sit quiet until the day I'm almost out, then suddenly it's moving. Does your portal at least show a tracking number once it ships?
honestly, mine always lands in that last-week window no matter when I put the request in, so at this point i just assume the portal dates are fiction
Mine's been late twice in a row now and I'm in Tucson too, so maybe it's regional? Curious if yours lands on the day they quoted or slips past it
Mine seems to run late whenever a refill lands near a holiday, otherwise it's fine. Are you calling the pharmacy directly or just watching the portal?
Mine cut it close once and I spent two days refreshing the tracking page like it would move faster.
Seattle here too and my pharmacy seems to run on the same schedule, always right down to the wire. I stopped trusting the portal and just call them the day I take my last pen now.
Mine cut it close the first two months too, then I switched to requesting right when the last pen goes in. Has the portal shown any pattern in when they actually ship?
Mine cuts it close every month too, so I stopped trusting the portal status and just call them directly the week before. Sounds like it's their rhythm, not your luck
Mine has landed two days before the pen ran dry twice now, so I just assume it's going to be tight and stopped checking the portal every morning. Curious if yours is a chain or one of the smaller compounding shops
Mine cuts it close most months too, so it's probably not a weird cycle. The one time I called a week early they shipped same day.
