Well, maybe Amicar is in short supply or something and they only give prescriptions for it in the event that a person is diagnosed with RAEB.

That's fine, of course! I'm happy someone is getting it! I know it's expensive... But so is Promacta. I was told that Promacta would cost me $10,200 out of my own pocket for the first 25 days of treatment, with a 30% chance of doing me any good.

I'm about to book out of the University of Michigan.
