We know the tumor is in a slightly different area than it was originally. He is in treatment (Temodar for the second time) for the third recurrence of his tumor. We have always been told it is in an area where surgery has not been an option. The oncologist does say he believes it is a higher grade. We think he believes it is glioblastoma but he won't say that definitely without doing another biopsy.
A month ago my husband (41) had a tumor resection of a GBM in the left temporal/frontal lobe. He is still recovering from surgery and has begun cancer treatment (temodar& radiation) a week ago. He has a previous accident injury where he has struggled with neck pain for ten years. He has been on suboxone for probably 7 years now. He is currently taking his suboxone but is not getting any relief for his head pain.
Desperate to switch from viread to vemlidy due to hypertension and cholesterol issues. Pricing still quite high. Anyone know if cheaper generics are now available and how one can access?
Its the man-made drug that's supposed to be like the hormone that causes contractions. I've heard that if you get pricing, the contractions come on quicker and stronger rather than being built up gradually like they would come naturally.
Is anyone from the NJ area that needs suboxone treatment? The pricing I have read is not at all what I have experienced. I can help you. Let me know. NJ area. Thanks.
A general Supplements category could cover differences among manufacturers, which online retailers have the most reliable service, best pricing, which supplements are most easily absorbed as liquid or capsules or with another substance added, etc.
t he make his stuff more affordable? His company just burns me with their skyhigh pricing! sorry I ranted!
Patient made decision to treat his anaplastic astrocytoma with surgery and Temodar only. No radiation! What is the prognosis for this 33 yr.old male.
Since the diagnosis of Glioblastoma grade 4 in August, my husband has had the tumor removed and completed the round of radiation and chemotherapy - temodar. Recently I have noticed him being very short fused and argumentative. The slightest thing sets him off as if he had been personally attack. I have also noticed depression setting in. I'm assuming this is all part of the treatment and diagnosis.
It will compare pricing of lab tests, physicians, surgeries, etc according to your zip code. So if you don't have health insurance or high deductibles you might want to look at this.

Zepatier (elbasvir and grazoprevir) with or without ribavirin, was FDA approved for genotype 1 & 4, yesterday. The pricing is better than the other available treatments, so that is a step in the right direction. There is a Fair Pricing Coalition meeting later today and a conference call with Merck next week. More to come regarding patient assistance and pricing.
