After all the tests in two hospitals and seeing his primary dr and his lung specialist, they say he has PAH, which is Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension! This is a very bad illness! They want to give him Tracleer a med that is very expensive and could cause liver sclerosis or failure in about 11 percent of patients! We looked it up on the net and on the discountdrug.com it is almost $4,000 for 56 tablets and if taken he has to visit the drs and have blood tests taken once a month! If he get liver damage from taking this med, I think the only thing he could do then is have a liver transplant, which would be very expensive! The ins will pray 2/3 of the cost and another place that helps has a $6000 grant to help pay the balance for the rest of the year! We don't really know what he should do, for either way he would be very ill! He is going to see if there is an alternative med in place of that one!
Please pray that he and also me, by prayer and helping him, will make the correct decision! Right now, we are leaning towards him not taking it, but he will continually get worse! Thank you for your prayers in my posting for prayers and God Bless! We will let God's will be done! Praise God and Thank You, Jesus! Amen!
