Update
Hello!
In the past weeks I have had Three ESI all at the L5-S1 nerve root. She used three selected approaches to try and hit the correct spot  One injection was very painful and created a large headache.At this point I am still waiting for some relief  No reply from any Spine Centers yet and still doing research on spine conditions  I must keep moving forward Gil

Hang in there Gil. Your day is coming. Is insurance paying for any of this or is it all you? And what doctors haven't responded to you?

re going forward
Hi Gil,
Good luck with all this stuff. I know the road you're traveling as do many here and I certainly wish you all the best with this spine journey. Hang in there and keep going. As Dale said your day will come.

Hi Dale and Maria
Yes I know my day will come, I have sent Information to Dr Bitian will not accept my insurance W.C The Texas Back still waiting Dr in L.A. still waiting This all has been paid by workers comp so far. As soon as I mention W.C it seems that I am denied to be seen or treated. When I spoke to my case worker about this she claimed it to be illegal? Getting really pissed off Thank You Gil

re illegal
Gil,
I don't think it's illegal for a doctor to not accept WC insurance cases or perhaps out of state WC. I know when I was trying to live in Fla. no one wanted to accept my out of state WC insurance. There were even some practices that said they would (Pain Managment) but then turned me down at the last minute after going thru a bunch of red tape paperwork. The OSS offices just plain and simple turned me down as did Neuro docs. Even here there are consultations with one doctor in a practice because he or she will not accept WC patients (or new WC patients) but someone in the practice will (usually they need to build up their clientele). Don't you wish they would just at least call and tell you where you stand? I'd rather get the denial so I could move on mentally then to think someone has me on some list and just "wait"... I've heard TBI seems to keep people waiting a long time or at least I heard this in the past (like a year). take care!
