in Stomach Cancer #1

Good morning friends.

I am mexican citizen. Stomach cancer patient since last february. I have haven 8 sessions of chemeotheraphy. The last PET/CT indicates that cancer grew in the last three months.

My doctor says could be fine to change the medicine. He thinks CYRAMZA would be good to me; but that medicine is not yet sold in Mexico.

Can anyone tell me how can I BUY CYRAMZA in United States and bring it to México? It is enought to have a mexican medical prescription in order to get it from the pharmacy? or are there other requeriments additionally?

My intent would be going to the U.S. by plane, buy the medicine and come back to Mexico city with my doctor in order to follow the treatment.

Thanks very much by your help.

    Cyramza

    Cyramza is manufactured by Eli Lilly Company. You may want to contact them and ask what is possible. Good luck.
