My doctor feels that my lab numbers on my protein levels are not going down enough with just being on Darzalex. I’m worried about the cost and the side effects.
I now receive my Venclexta completely free .
Thanks. I contacted my Dr. and they said they are still working on it.
I have no idea what 11:14 translocation means. I had a recent bone marrow biopsy which led my dr to prescribe the drug.

Have you been tested to see if you have the 11:14 translocation that would qualify you to take Venetoclax? I know a lot of patients who responded very well to this drug and their numbers dropped quickly. Talk to your doctor and ask specifically about the response rates.
Always appeal! The doctor may need to provide them with more information and why they feel this drug could be helpful for you.
