selkie at 10:23am on 26/10/2005So my insurance.
It is good insurance. It comes from Canada.
It does not cover Zavesca, because it is considered an 'alternative therapy', because it is expensive and the dosage is frequent (pardon me for saying I'd be fine with taking a pill three times a day) and because it's only been on the market for a year and a half and most people still prefer conventional enzyme replacement and blah! Blah! Blah!
Cerezyme, the ERT people, offers subsidies.
Dear Zavesca people, plz to be offering subsidies also.
Anyway, none of that is actually the point!
The point is I have made a proper appointment for my next round of ERT and my wife will be pleased.
My doctor won't be pleased, because I owe them some blood work, but that's okay.
My insurance won't be pleased, because I need to send them some paperwork, but that's okay.
Wife pleased, spleen smaller, Selkie happy.
