How could I possibly avail of a desferal pump?
« on: May 15, 2007, 07:40:48 AM »
Hi!

I need help... I was advised by my doctor to undergo on iron chelation therapy. I am based in Angeles City philippines. I have ordered a pump from Novartis Philippines almost 2 months ago, however, it seems like they are having a hard time availing of desferal pump. According to an agent I've talked to, it takes a long time to avail of stocks coming from Italy.
I can't wait for more complications of iron intoxication. I desperately need a desferal pump. Please help me find ways to avail of a pump as soon as I can. Thanks a lot...

Hi! thanks for your reply.
Actually, I've already talked to someone from Novartis Philippines, however, until now, desferal pump is still out of stock. it's been 5 months since i was advised to undergo therapy. I want to have the pump as soon as i can so I can start with my therapy and prevent complications of iron intoxication.  ???
Exjade is available here already, however, i really can't afford it so I  opted to buy a desferal pump. really need it  :wah
