Deranged Throat-Puncher
So, I started having some major back pain a few years ago. I've been to orthopedic Dr, pain management Dr, and several chiropractors since. I've had 9 cortisone shots in my spine and 2 nerve ablations. Spent several thousands of dollars in the process. I've put my family in a financially tight spot seeking relief, yet I'm still spending everyday in terrible pain. I just visited a new chiropractor in my area and he recommended spinal decompression treatment. I was all excited of the possibility of a new treatment that no one has recommended, until he pulled out the financial part of it. $200/visit with a total of 24 visits for this plan, so $4800, once that is done he recommends a once a month maintenance visit so basically $2400/year after the fact. None of this treatment is covered by insurance, so it's out of pocket cost and doesn't go towards my deductible or anything. Has anyone paid the money for the treatment and glad they did? I'm to the point of being miserable and feeling like the healthcare system doesn't want me better, they just want to keep taking money.
