I should begin my infusions real soon now.

Just curious....what do you all pay for your infusions? I am sure I am getting a good deal, however, I am not sure where I will get an extra $50.00 a month from....yes, it is really that tight financially in our home. Still have three kids at home too.
I know you asked about this a while ago, but I just arrived at the boards and thought this might help: You may be able to get financial assistance for the infusion costs via the hospital or infusion center. My insurance didn't cover my Tysabri OR infusion (even after multiple horrible appeals) but the hospital approved full coverage for me after submitting a simple request form. Maybe that will work for you as well!

I hope all went well in your first infusion!!!!
