He told me each treatment is 30K. Does that sound right? I have good insurance, but remember when I had them before, they were about $700 if given in a freestanding infusion center and $2200 if given in the outpatient area of the hospital. That has been quite a while back. I am showing my age here.

I don't know when it will start, he didn't say, but I do know the hospital is working through getting the insurance approval.

The osteoporosis drug I took was Atelvia. The doctor says the next step is Prolia, an injectable drug given twice yearly. I have not read much on that. My friend here had a very similar reaction when she took one of the other bisphosphonates. I am now a little gunshy of these drugs, though I was told Prolia works in a different manner...
