Default We won our RSV appeal!!!

We found out today,hes going to be 5 in three weeks & we still got approved for the synagis!If it was just left up to his ped. he wouldnt be getting it,but I called the dept of health & raised H***!...Oh thank God!I even called the manufacturer to see if they were doing any clinical trial for older kids,no call back of course,but even decanned he still got it.My advise to everyone in the same boat is fight,fight,fight!..................Angie
