Also, from what I've been told, you have to get the infusion done at a place that's in some way connected to your neuro. Has anyone heard different?

That's incredible, Katty!

I'm glad you have a vested interest in trying to rectify this, and I'll be curious to hear if you ever do.

It almost seems risky to rock the boat though, when you are dealing with corporations where common sense doesn't prevail.
