Hey Josh,

Sorry that you were denied again, but it's not a surprise either. The fibrosis stage is often a barrier to treatment and shouldn't be. With that said, you have an excellent chance of getting the approval by one of the Big Pharm assistance programs. Let's keep our fingers crossed that the approval comes soon. (Without having to progress to F3 or higher!)

Your "spiel" is always welcome! This time I was glad that you let us know how things are advancing in short order. As disappointing as a denial can be, it also lets you know that plan B is now in progress. I will keep my fingers crossed that you hear some good news shortly. Keep us informed!
