Please support Grandad by signing petition to allow macular degeneration sufferers Avastin treatment on NHS? - macular degeneration treatment nbc

My grandfather was diagnosed with wet macular degeneration, and was told that unless blindly go Avastin injections.

However, the NHS has refused to pay for treatment. The drug costs £ 700 per injection, and you will need to complete at least nine prevent blindness.

Even if we're lucky, a family is ready, a chip in the treatment and have the depth of my concern, all the others out there who need this drug, but who do not pay for it.

AMD can lead to blindness in just three months, but can be reversed with prompt treatment.
