Guest guest Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hi, when i was on Gleevec/Trisenox (arsenic) and it made me sick the dr. said he could prescribe some pills that may help. I didn't question the cost, I picked them up, charged them, got home and found out the 10 little pills cost $400.00.....I think 10 little joints would not have cost $400.00 !!! Of course, they might have led to $400.00 worth of food for the " munchies " , so it would have evened out. a ( Bobby ) Doyle, dob 12/17/29 DX 5/1995 Interferon 9 weeks/Hydroxyurea 5 years 02/2000 to 06/2002 Gleevec trial, OHSU 06/2002 Gleevec/Trisenox Trial, OHSU 06/2003 Gleevec/Zarnestra Trial, OHSU 04/2004 Sprycel Trial, MDACC, CCR in 10 months 04/2008 XL228 Trial, U of Mich. 01/2009 PCR 5.69 04/2009 Ariad Trial AP24534 09/2009 PCR 0.01 11/2009 PCR 0.034 02/2010 PCRU #840 Zavie's Zero Club From: Lottie Duthu <lotajam@...> Subject: [ ] Cannibus " CML " < > Date: Friday, September 17, 2010, 3:22 AM  Thank you, Tracey for that information on the dangers of buying pot from a street vendor, we really don't know where it comes from. You should be able to raise your own in flower pots if it is legal. I checked on the cost of Marinol and it is very costly. Here I found a website that compares the cost of cannibus as compared to Marinol. http://medicalmarijuana.procon.org/view.answers.php?questionID=000091 I checked further and found this from Drugstore.com: The cost for 30 caps is $822.32. I guess this means that I am not going to get off Dilaudid any time soon. http://www.drugstore.com/pharmacy/prices/drugprice.asp?ndc=00051002321 & trx=1Z500\ 6 That is not in my budget this month, or any other month. Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you also for clearing up the question for Ted about CML & AML being two different diseases.
