I have state funded Medicaid and specialist would not see me. I was forced to look into other countries. I found myself traveling to the Caribbean where I was immediately diagnosed and put on a regimen that to this day alleviates me. Sad because if I was allowed to pay a specialist what the insurance company actually pays them I would never had to leave. By the way I was charged less than two hundred dollars for MRI of head and spine with contrast., Where in the states it was nearly two thousand. Food for thought. Also the neurologist who attended me spoke English because she practiced medicine in NYC where she had graduated. Sad when third world countries make our health system look like a joke.
