hopes are up...
Jan. 7th, 2002 02:18 pmi called AETNA. the skin biopsy at Johns Hopkins is covered, so is the doctor who does it. i just need a referral from my PCP, in addition to the 'script written by my neurologist.
the carpal tunnel splints will be covered, as well.
and my foot orthotics are covered on a case-by-case basis. the ortho surgeon just has to call and say, "YES, these are a medical necessity." and POOF! they'll be covered.
:D
now, i hope this all works out. i was really dreading scrimping for the foot plates.

Date: 2002-01-07 01:18 pm (UTC)My migraines were caused by bc pills (which I discovered when the doc suggested I use different birth control until I stopped having regular vomiting with migraines). I can only take Aleve or ibuprofen rarely, as I take Celebrex daily. The TMJ pain is only a tiny thing to put up with compared to yours, or your mom's, or my hands, hip, and knees. . . .
