There is a new treatment approved for Amy patients that has the same efficacy as my current treatment. As you recall, I have done a chemotherapy treatment every 21 days since June 1, 2015. That works out to about 17 times per year. The new treatment is an injection in the arm, stomach, or hips that I would receive one time every three months or only four times a year!
It is currently pending with my insurance company but the thought of going from 17 to 4 times a year is life-changing. I am so excited about the freedom it gives me to live closer to a normal life. It is still not a cure but we are getting closer.
Let’s pray insurance approves and I can afford the remaining amount. If not, well 17 is better than nothing. . .
