 We have a patient with a high grade mast cell tumour which was diagnosed at a large referral centre and has been advised to start treatment with weekly vinblastine injections for 4 weeks and then once fortnightly for four treatments.

Each week that vincristine is required including pre chemo bloods is £250.

We are currently on a vincristine route with a patient at the moment, I will look at the &amp;#39;each time&amp;#39; cost tomorrow for you&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Chemotherapy in non referral practices cost?</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/149814?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 20 Feb 2014 17:24:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:34ac51c5-6242-491a-b9e1-9cc6a431f021</guid><dc:creator>sarahjune84</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Have you tried giving the owner a full breakdown of the costs and explaining it to them so they can see how much is being done and where the money is going and the health and safety cost of doing the chemo.
