- 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!

it is amazing this this medicine
I can't understand why it's so expensive
I have read most of your posts and find them so very helpful. I would so like to email you to ask you some questions about starting Xeljanz. I am new to this board and am having trouble finding email addresses to “Friend” someone. Will you please give me your email so that I may be your “friend”? Thanks so much! Gretchen (Bubbles on AW)
I'm in New York and on Medicaid and according to Medicaid, they only cover Humira and Enbrel. My biggest concerns are side affects. I have been recently diagnosed with RA and I would prefer Xeljanz because I hear so many people say they haven't experienced any side affects. I hope Pfizer has a program in New York where I can qualify for Xeljanz
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!
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?
it a hope for many hopeless peoples
Thanks so much for the compliment, I'm glad I could offer a suggestion! I see you contribute quite a lot, that's so kind of you! :-)
