[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you not go to a doctor? Why would you be “fairly certain” about a torn rotator cuff? You haven’t been able to lift your arm for months and you haven’t bothered with an xray or an MRI? That’s insanity unless you don’t have health insurance in which case honestly it’s still insanity because that’s enough time to buy health insurance or get a subsidy or Medicaid[/quote] OP here--I spoke with two doctors who told me to do PT first and said that most insurance requires several (8 or more) PT visits before they'll cover an MRI. I contacted my insurance last week and they said they couldn't find anything in my policy that requires a set number of visits before an MRI so that will be my next step. It takes time to get in to see a sports med doctor, you don't just call up and get in the next day. If they tell you to do PT first, you do PT first and then get on the schedule.[/quote]
