    Kalydeco cost

    several of us have had low co-pays and no hassles with insurance, so its definitely worth getting an Rx and giving it a try. i hate that everyone is just assuming Kalydeco is out of reach because insurance won't cover or co-pays will be too high. you never know unless you try!

    Ya I was fully prepared to ask other CF docs (I know a few that would have given it to me) if mine didn't. I think your outlook is perfect. There was no way I wasn't going to try the drug.... just to try. WHat mutations do you have, Icomudrox?
