The insurance has approved us for one visit to see the DR. in Madison for a second opinion but little do they know that if we like him we will be going down to see him all the time. I'm tired of Dr's not knowing what they are talking about. This is my little girl and I will do anything to get her the best treatment. They do not allow you to have just a title 19 anymore so you have to jump thru hoops to get to a Dr. that you need for your child. I do not like the HMO system you should be allowed to see anyone you want no matter if they are in your network or not. Come hell or high water Katie will be seen by a Chiari specialist.

  1. I think you are very wise to see a chiari specialist for your daughter, better yet, a doctor who will look you in the eye and listen to you! I was diagnosed with chiari in 2006 and have since then been detethered and decompressed and feel so much better. Know that you are not alone in this process ~ I have posted my blog address below as a place to go for more info about chiari and a place to be inspired to hang in there ~ Lacie

  2. Hey Laurie!

    Carson has an appointment this week to see Dr. I as well. I was hoping that we would both be there on the same day but it looks like we will be missing each other by ONE day!! She will see him on June 4th. DARN!!!
