tom replied to the topic Zometa – is this available on NHS in the forum Treatment 13 years, 9 months ago
Hi Gill
I had Zometa for two years after my SCT then it stopped so I think two years was/is the norm and I have never paid for any treatment even before it became free for cancer sufferers. My Dr had a Nurse fetch my stuff up to the clinic and if i needed any thing else my Nurse Heln woulg go and fetch it 🙂
Hope its soon resolved
