So - my doctor has a blog - his link is below. LymeMD - take a look at his July 4th posting - he said that he got angry...well his ego made me angry.
Yes, he discontinued coverage with my insurance provider. He doesn't seem to understand that in treating me for lyme disease, and his focus on the disease has made me feel like a guinea pig. What if the weight loss has reduced the chronic pain in my knees? How do I know for sure that it isn't my change in diet that has allowed me to feel so completely wonderful? I have loads of energy, have started to enjoy exercise (GASP!!!) and was simply ticked off at this doctor's response to when I told him that I would need to change primary care physicians.
I cannot fill prescriptions through my insurance program if he does not take my insurance. They audit this stuff - did you know that?
I cannot have the 8 million tests that he wants to continue putting me through without a referral from a doctor that is on my plan - AND not just that - the referral has to be to another doctor who accepts my insurance.
Yes, most lyme doctors do not take insurance - if in fact my doctor failed to renew the contract with my insurance company due to the problems that he is having, should that not make the patient more leery of having this doctor treat them? Also, his focus is on lyme. What if the tests generated do not account for lyme and he just truly "believes" that I have it - what if it is something else? What if it is nothing - what if it is related to obesity? I still have about another 40 to 50 pounds to lose - how will I feel when that is gone?
I am so angry - he said "Do you know how cheap I am? Other lyme doctors charge $400 to $800 per visit - and for me, it's just $50!" It isn't about money - or not all of it. If I want to truly be treated as I believe I should be treated, why is it not a good idea to go forward and get a second opinion? His own opinion is, of course, that he's the best lyme doc around. His ego was stomped on when I told him that I had to leave. Yes, my progress is "near miraculous" but how do we know that it is lyme and not weight loss?
Again - too many questions, too few answers. Frustration and anger abound.
That's all for now...By the way, go to www.lymemd.blogspot.com and read his July 4th post entitled "Lyme Care - Is It Affordable?"
