    I may have to go on INQOVI some day. From what I have searched it is over $7,000 per treatment. Will your part D drug coverage pay for this? I am selecting an insurer soon and want to make sure I am covered if it is ever needed. Thanks for all of you help.

    Mine went away as soon as the weather got cooler so not sure it had anything to do with MDS. Never had any pain.

    Thankyou Michael. This will make a big difference in what company I go with for part D.

    Thanks for all of your help. I was afraid that I had to buy a really really part D coverage but now it looks like Medicare will help with this. Hope I never have to use it. Fortunately I have been stable since diagnosed in 2014. Thanks again for your help.

    I would not be eligible for any help so I just hope it does not progress. Diagnosis is low risk with ringed siderblasts. Thanks to all that responded. I am surprised that when you type the drugs into the medicare site that it does not even recognize them.
