q re insurance Re: mitoldies: MS

[Guest guest]

I am just wondering about what sort of insurance you all speak about about. Is

it health insurance ie to cover costs of tests, hospitals, therapy etc, or are

you talking about disability type of insurance to cover loss of income down the

track? I am just trying to fathom out what sort of insurance my children

(young adults) might need in case they have mito (also do not live in the US so

am not familiar with some of the terms). They haven't been diagnosed yet but

are going for tests shortly, since there are some suspicious symptoms. pamela

Re: : MS

The dilemma is that none of those individuals are mito experts. That seems to

make all of the difference in the world. I do fully understand about the

insurance challenges though. Insurance issues are my worst nightmare.

these films have been read by several radiologists, a neuroradiologist and

then transported to another facility and re read by a neurosurgeon and

neuroradiologist. the insurance said no more..
