I read your first response to imply that perhaps your insurance company is not paying the total cost of your drugs . . . that you are being subsidized in some other way. I thought that was the case, because I seemed to recall something about Biogen agreeing to subsidize some of the Tysabri a few months ago...?

But you are saying you are paying about $100,000 a year in insurance?

How can anyone possibly afford that?

Why so much, because you joined up after your dx?
