TIME FOR ME TO END TYSABRI
Why? Biogen has been great to me, buth the infusion center costs have gone through the roof. After a 20 minute meeting with my neuro-team, we have agreed that it is time to find a way to resolve this problem. Even though I have insurance through Anthem Blue Cross of California, they have not paid for my infusion center costs to the point where it is still a viable option. MS treatements and insurance premiums have cost me over $110,000 over the past few years and I have said finally that enough is enough. Just by chance, after my meeting with my neuro-team wherein we made a decision to switch to Rebif, the Rebif representative happened to walk into the office and provided me and my team with the paperwork to provide Rebif to me for one year at a cost of $51 per month. That will save us thousands of dollars per year. So, although my Tysabri journey has come to an abrupt end, my Rebif journey is about to start.
