Started losing my hair in 2009. Took one and a half years to lose it all. Prayed for it to return for 5 years. Found out about Xeljanz October 2014 on a camping trip from a man who has had AU for 14 years. He showed me pictures of Kyles regrowth and for the first time I had real hope! I found out that low income individuals like myself could qualify to receive Xeljanz, which normally costs over $2700 per month for FREE thru Pfizer's hardship program. The University of San Francisco Dematology Clinic approved me for the drug in May. After being denied by my insurance, I qualified for Pfizer's hardship program. They are mailing me the drug free if charge & I should receive it TODAY!!! I'm so excited to finally be able to have my hair back after 6 years!
Thank you!!! I will definitely try it, but if you know of someone in the forum who has a dermatologist in Texas please let me know. I asked Serg Navaro, but he hasn't responded with the doctors name yet.
Hi, I've read through ~190 pages on here about the Xeljanz trial so far but still had a few questions, if you don't mind. I was wondering what kind of insurance you had since I'm interested in seeing a doctor at UCSF. I know my current insurance won't cover it so out-of-pocket would be really expensive. I was wondering if I should buy a new insurance? but that might cause issues later if I were to apply for Xelsource for financial aid?
Oh, I didn't realize UCSF accepted Medi-Cal. That's wonderful. I called UCSF and it turned out that they did accept my insurance after all, so I'll get my primary doctor to refer me to Dr. North. I've sent over a text on my phone if you could please let me know Carol's number - thanks!
