Mr. Wang was diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma on 2015/9/12.
After surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, start taking the targeted drug gefitinib.
Five years ago, the targeted drug gefitinib has not yet been reimbursed by Medicare.
After buying medicines for 8 months, I applied for the China Charity Iressa Project to organize the donation of medicines for nearly 50 months, and after the outbreak of the epidemic, I have been eating the donated medicine Irisza tablets due to the inconvenience of going out.
A repeat CT of the chest every two months suggests an enlarged lung nodule and neglects to do a head examination.
A second drug-resistant blood test was done at a local hospital, but no T790 mutation was found.
In order to find the mutant t790, I went to Beijing to find Cui, director of the minimally invasive surgery department of Weeping Willow Hospital, who did a CT-guided puncture.
The result was still not found t790 spent nearly twenty thousand dollars.
Helpless! Home.
Then take the targeted drug Iressa tablets, in recent months found that the old man lost a lot of weight, blood test carcinoembryonic antigen as high as 89 nausea do not want to eat.
Hurry to the hospital to check to see if there is any drug resistance transfer?
A thorough examination was done, and the results came out, and the head MRI showed two metastases!
Lung adenocarcinoma head metastasis! What to do?
After consultation, the doctor decides: 1 head radiotherapy, 2 or systemic chemotherapy, 3 taking the targeted drug oscitinib tablets
In a hurry to treat its symptoms, I first did head radiotherapy, so I made a positioning in the radiotherapy department and waited for the notification.
Ask the doctor if there are any medicines I can take? The doctor said yes, please hello old man to prescribe a medicine.
The doctor said: Oscitinib tablets can be used, but can not be reimbursed by medical insurance, have to pay their own expenses.
How much does it cost a month? The doctor answered, 5580 yuan at his own expense.
At the juncture of life, the emergency moment of life and death, the family gritted their teeth, and it was necessary to buy to save people!
The doctor opened the prescription, the bus home with the prescription was still walking on the road, and received a call from a stranger saying, you buy oscitinib, do you know where to buy it? Strange, how did he know to buy this medicine?
It turned out that the doctor told him to go to the pharmacy he said and buy a box of AstraZeneca out of oscitinib tablets for 5580 yuan.
By this time it was very late
I began to take medicine, and a pill was 186 yuan at my own expense and eaten into my stomach.
