Getting close for Tykerb release!
Well, here it is nearly the middle of March and I believe we will soon hear. I think it was the 15th or 16th. I believe it was Esther who's doctor thought it might be the 13th. I check this board every day looking for it. hugs, Sandy

Sandy,

I think I read that the date is "supposed" to be March 18th.

As the 18th is a Sunday, I would doubt that would be the
day Tykerb would be approved. Ditto the 17th. That leaves the upcoming Monday through Friday.
