Hi All! I had posted about 2 months ago for help in obtaining my Temodar because my insurance wouldnt cover it for me. Well, to shorten the story much,, I went through their Commitment to Care program and it is all based on one's income. In my case I had to buy one months supply out of pocket myself. To shorten the story further,, I got a credit card, put the one months supply on that ( 5 capsules cost $ 2258.00 here in FL, disgusting right?) and then Schering up and approved me for the program which will pay for my monthly chemo for 2 years or end of treatment which ever comes first. Im going to ask my oncologist to leave me on the med for the full two years I think cause so far every MRI Ive had shows absolutely No Change in the inoperable portion of my tumor. That is unless she can tell me or prove me that it is dead, I want to stay on the chemo as long as I can,, wouldnt you??
Now I just have to try to pay off that credit card.. Yikes.
