It depends where you have it done and what type of ins you have. MS is not mentioned, ever. It is Venous Disease for ins, which it is. Medicare or Medicaid pay for most of it. Not for travel expenses, hotel over one night, or meals.

Many private ins companies pay for venous disease procedures all the time. We should not have kinks or blockages in our veins, it's not normal. If it were in our legs they would fix it, right?

Once the veins are fixed (congenital defect, or bone growth or pressure on veins) MS symptoms disappearing are the bonus we get.

Chicken or the egg theory. I will still stay on LDN, others stay on whatever they think is helping them too. Or they may toss their meds. out the window. JMO
