Tykerb: I'm getting closer
I just heard today my onc wrote a letter of necessity to my insurance comp. for tykerb. They are going to pay 80% of it. That sounds like alot, but i have to come up with 936$ a month myself. The drug is about 3600$ they said. I am in the process of calling some patient assistance programs that might pay my copay on it. If interested her is their names: HealthWellfoundation.org phone is 800-675-8416 patientaccessnetwork.org phone 866-316-7261 and patientadvocatefoundation.org phone 866-5123861
