"So it could be that a MS patient could be expected to pay $62,000 just for one medication," says Dr. Daniel Kantor, who treats MS patients and others with neurological conditions near Jacksonville, Florida.

He's correct. I get a $1250 infusion (Tysabri) for MS every month, and that's only one medication. Doesn't add up to $62,000, but still...

Jesus Christ: You can’t impeach Him and He ain’t going to resign.

My wife was on Tysabri and it was $12,000 a month. She is on Medicare, but we have supplemental insurance, so between the two her bills are covered 100%, except for a few medications.

But still the cost of that is minor.

Her trips to the Dr, Hospital, ect. are covered 100%.

But between the 2 we pay close to $600 a month, and the supplemental covers me as well.
