MSAA is providing a free MRI of the brain. Neuro really wants a spinal MRI, but they dont pay for that, so that will have to wait.

My neuro has cut his bill down by over 200.00 a visit. He is constantly trying to do things that is within my budget even down to the meds he gives me. He is great and I couldnt ask for a better neuro. I have applied for a few other things with the MSAA and Im still currently waiting for replies.

Are you having to pay full fare for these tests? Is there a university hospital near you that might run the tests? Generally they offer programs with big discounts for uninsured.
Yes, we have to pay for everything execept the MRI out of pocket. My dh cant sign up for insurance until February. I will be making alot of calls to my surrounding hospitals and ask for prices on the bloodtests. We live close to a university hospital, and they will be one of the hospitals that I will be calling.
