So glad to hear your daughter did well with Calamare. I have seen Dr. D'Amato in RI. It was very helpful for me. Not a complete remission, but my quality of life has greatly improved.

As far as insurance coverage, just keep trying. I am on workman's comp. My insurance had never payed for Calamare before. With the help of a great lawyer, pain specialist, and Dr. D'Amato I was eventually able to get it fully covered (including paying for my hotel stay while I was there). I even spoke to the CEO of the insurance company on several occasions. Once it was finally approved the CEO sent five senior insurance executives to visit the facility and speak to me during a treatment. Someone has to be the first to get a new treatment covered. I'm glad I was able to pave the way for someone else.
