Thank you for your response. I had to take Hydrea for 18 months before I was approved for Jakafi(ruxolitinib) because of the cost also. My oncolgist and pharmicist helped me to qualify. It is a big improvement for me energy and improved the feeling of skin itching. It is a fairly new medicine with no generic alternative yet. Good luck with your treatment.
