Victrelis Approved

[Magnum]

Just got a, call from the Medicare sub-contractor, my insurance company, that they have approved Bocepravir. This should be good news for those on Medicare. They said to call the pharmacy and order the meds now. This is the beginning of what will hopefully be my (and other's) final battle. Good luck to everyone in their battle. One way or another, we will all be victorious.

Thanks to all for your well wishes. I wish the best for all of you as well. Because I'm an entertainer, I have several contracts to fulfill but plan to start on the 11th. I have my  battle gear on, my workout regiment in place, my snacks to be taken with meds, and tons of movies to occupy my mind. So let the show begin........

Take a peek at the photo of my shot box bonfire that I had at the end of my TX...in case you need any more killer-instinct motivation.  :)

[Magnum]

Yes, contact your insurance company... and remember... if you are denied, you can always appeal... Good luck...

   Hey, that's great that you can order the meds now.....and that medicare or insurance will pay for it!      Good luck going forward.   As you may know that I SVR'ed on boce (victrellis) and I am  a stage 4 who has some decompensation. I know it will work for you!

Ah Magnum how exciting this is finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[willing]

great news! I'm just starting my 2nd week with victrelis and so far have been pleasantly surprised at the lack of additional sx (on top of the usual soc fun and games). No skin issues whatsoever and no additional noticeable Hgb decline (1st cbc in 2 weeks). Best of luck on your start.
