I'm trying to get a cineflow mri scheduled and am running into all kinds of issues with insurance... How many of you had this issue? How much was your out of pocket cost? I have decent insurance so I'm hoping this wont be an arm and a leg, maybe just one or the other.
Emmaline thanks for the reply. Since no one has formerly diagnosed me with Chiari they are saying thats why this is an issue. They are also saying its a special MRI and is a lot more $$$
Yes I had one two years ago. I was diagnosed a while back with Dysautonomia/POTS but none of the treatments have worked. Needless to say my Vet informed me about Chiari and I asked my neuro at the Cleveland Clinic to look at my MRI. He did and saw a 3mm drop. Of course he said this isint a problem and its not causing my issues... No one that I've scene has been of any help with this...
Of course it was a neurologist that said it wasnt an issue... I'm waiting to see Viollete Racinos (however you spell her name) at the Clinic but that wont be until Oct. Now the flip side is I sent stuff out to NY Chiari Institue and they felt I had an issue, UPMC looked at my stuff as well and said they want a Cineflow MRI done.
