How strange. I bought my last pair of orthotics myself, but I figured insurance companies would cover that to prevent more frequent and severe medical probs down the line. I have completely flat feet with has put stress of my knees for it seems like forever, esp doing athletics. My feet still kill standing up for awhile, with or without orthotics. Do you have any corresponding health probs that you can refer to to strengthen your claim for insurance to cover it?
TMJ is a pain. I switched back and forth between physicians and dentists before someone diagnosed me, and then I had to pay for my splint out of pocket too, which was another ridiculously expensive device that sometimes seems to not help at all.
Good luck with everything! SOunds like you have so much going on with CTS and your feet and all. I totally empathize. ((hugs))
