Most cancer patients have a portocath so the danger you are talking about hardly exists. Avastin is an expensive drug. It can cost up to $100k a yr and I am sure that has something to do with why no one wants to cover it.
I received avastin as part of a UCLA trial for breast cancer. Since I was part of the trial my insurance was never billed for it. UCLA is still tracking me.
Esactly sheana.
Tysabri is my drug which was taken off the market for treatment of MS because it was “too dangerous”, albeit very effective.
Well crap if you are going to be rendered useless by a progressive disease, wouldn’t you rather die trying?
Sounds good ~ to be tracked means you are still among your loved ones. Wish you the best.
