thanks for your reply. I have insurance. I'm too young for medicare, so now I am on medicaid. I had a 50% copay with my insurance.. Celgene's PAP helped me until I was given disability determination. It was costing me 6,000. a mo. initially. My insurance covered 50%, but when the med. costs 12,000 amo. it did't take long to go thru my savings. Iwas dx. in 04, so I was pretty desperate to try it. I'm hoping that insurance co. will consider covering the "new" cancer and marrow disorder drugs under major medical coverage, which would make them more affordable. I've had great result, transfusion free for almost two years. Thx
