Yes myler bits are most expensive and there are many on the market.

I would read this as it explains the different types of mylers and which are best suited to your needs.

I personally, would only use a level 1/2. I had the same problem myself and used a myler kimblewick with a slightly raised port (it would be to small for you, its 4 1/2 inch, it was for a pony) and after several months doing flatwork and jumping in the bit she is now ridden in a happy mouth snaffle!!

As you can probaly see they have a borrowing service. I would borrow a bit you think may work .. although a snaffle one may be best to start with ... then work up to a stronger one if you think necessary .. trust me you do not need a strong as one as you would think (we once had a pony who couldnt be held in a pelham but could be held in a snaffle myler!!)

Then when you have found one that works I would go onto ebay and buy one on there. Do not worry if it has been used, thats what dish washers were invented for, although make sure its not damaged (your dishwasher can't fix that!!)

I hope this helps!!!
