I wanted to add that I finally got Approval for tx from ins . I will get my first infusion of perjetA on Wednesday. So the ins back and forth does help. I was rejected twice and my onc had to send documentation and examples of two studies. I am stage IV and have taken other txs since Feb. I got a conditional three month approval for three treatments of perjetA, Herceptin and Taxotere.
