Guest guest Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 congratulations!! that's great!! you're definately starting 2006 off on the right foot!! heather ----- Original Message ----- From: pjboucher2001 Sent: Thursday, January 05, 2006 7:29 AM Subject: [ ] I got approval!!! Hello everyone one! It is a good start to 2006 for me! I received a letter in the mail yesterday from my husband's insurance company and I have approval for Xolair! I get 100% coverage, unlimited maximum annual amount with a 10$ annual deductible! (I think my husband pays about 100$ per month for our family of 4 for prescriptions/dental and eye care.) I called Xhale and they have set it up with " Specialty Care Pharmacy " out of Toronto (there is no one in Kingston providing Xolair). They will be able to ship it out the beginning of next week and as long as I can get an appointment with my respirologist, I can start next week!!! WOW!!! I am still in shock! I've had a pretty rough go of things since the first part of November. It's actaully been the worse that my asthma has ever been in the 22 years I've had it (started at age 17). This couldn't come at a better time. Hopefully my peak flows will improve and will not need prednisone so much. This past year I've been on it 6 times for short bursts, but have needed to be on it since November. I thank this wonderful site for helping me to be better informed about Xolair and hope that I get some positive results! Pamela Kingston, Ontario " There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till.
