Hello all, 

I am visiting from Stage 4 Breast Cancer world, apologies for bumping in! I know there are many threads on paying for Avastin privately, but I have not been able to find a recent one. I am planning to pay for it as part of my breast cancer treatment (it used to be NHS covered but is not any more, despite working for some patients). I am treated at Barts in London. I know NHS hospitals can administer it and charge for it; does anyone have recent experience with this especially at Barts? Otherwise I will need to pay for both the Avastin and my chemotherapy to be administered privately and I'd rather only pay for the Avastin...

Any advice much appreciated
