Yes, the Nurse confirmed that the Doctor agreed with what
the other Nurse had said the Radiologist had interpreted: no visible metastasis in the
brain.
I also got a Nurse and a Doctor and a Pharmacist to agree
that it made sense to have the full course available of Sutent, before I
started the course. The Pharmacist said
it was in the pipeline and that I could pick it up on Thursday, but they just
had to get the software to co-operate as it doesn’t like to dispense a $10,000
dose so close to the first $10,000 dose.
28 capsules of 50 mg each adds up to 1400mg or 1.4
grams. A gram of gold costs $45.73,
currently. No wonder they are so touchy
about it. (see: http://www.goldgrambars.com/
)
All in all a successful day of nudging on the health care
providers. And a lovely spring day. I felt glad to be in Kitsap again in the
spring. It’s a visual treat.
