Received a call today from my oncologist office. The new medication for my chemo treatment, Treanda, was approved!
With that news, also received confirmation of chemo on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday the Neulasta shot. It is a shorter treatment than before. Three months on this schedule once each month, then a MRI scan. If all looks good, another three months, and then another scan... and it goes on.
Now, I know that I am pushing my luck... but want to try and get my primary doctor to convince the insurance that I need to use Lantus insulin rather that what I am on. The Lantus has a longer life, and will regulate my glucose better. It is also expensive, so they have refused to pay for it. If not, I will wait until I get my supplemental insurance the end of this year. Hope that it will pay for Lantus.
