I will go through and re-read this information, but are you only experienced in worker's comp or do you have experience as an auto claims as well?

If so, maybe you can answer a question for me. I guess my question would also pertain towards the workers comp as well because it is a question about medical. I'm in Michigan, so I understand that the laws might also be different.

I have been in a constant battle with my PIP Claims Adjuster. She ignores me, she doesn't respond and is a major problem sometimes getting a simple answer from her. Obviously, I am trying to get better. I hate the pain I am in, I went through the surgery for the spinal cord implant (twice) trying to improve my condition, I am enduring the epideral blocks right now. I am following all the doctors recommendations. I always send her an email before and after treatments. I sent her a link two weeks ago in regards to a clinic that does "alternative" treatment. By alternative, I am asking to have a "simple" heavy metal toxicity test ran. I found out after having screws in my knee and foot that I was allergic to the metal. I had the allergy testing performed prior to the implant. A lot (well, all really) of my medicines affect my kidney and liver functions. The heavy metals can build up in your body and mimic or show symptoms similar to RSD. Since I am finding no relief from the stim, the injections, the meds, I am starting to question this heavy metal thing. How hard is it to get "approved" for this type of treatment? Does the insurance industry ever consider something like this? I am desperate right now to improve...
