Thanks, Margo.  I suppose it can't hurt to call and tell them what happened.  Maybe they'll cover the one extra dose.

Hope this is a great week for everyone!

Hi, I doubt they will give you extra pegasys though... I'm on Incivek.

Ive messed up a few pegintron pens in my previous treatment, insurance replaced all of them. Things happen, I bent a needle last week :) imagine how I explained to them how did I manage to do that ;) so they sent me 10 extra :) call them up now, it takes time to order and deliver, so you won't run short.

I'm feeling pretty stupid.  I guess we'll be one vial short at the end of treatment and I'm sure the insurance company will love that.  Some days it doesn't pay to get up. no
