Hi Kelly, When I was first diagnosed, my oncs gave me a "charity" discount. They can write off anything they want..you can't lose anything by asking. good luck!

Mine offered several times, but, thankfully, my insurance covered my meds and I didn't need the help. I wish I could be of more help. Sounds like the Cobra isn't doing you a lot of good. My thoughts are with you and I will say prayers that something will help. I would call my Onc. and see if there is anyway they can help.
