:

is not far off the mark here (even though one may be aghast

when first reading it).

Insurance companies will pay up to 12K to 20K a year

for 'accepted' DMARDs.. Enbrel at 15K per year is paid for once

someone has an RA dx.

I read where someone kept their MS dx as primary (and let Lym dx go

to the background) so insurance would cover the abx for Lyme.. As

contrary as that sounds- it worked.

LOL

On the off chance the neuro youre seeing turns out to NOT be some

dogmatic and/or sociopathic blowhard (not that reasonable doctors are

quite that rare gnerally, but they are in s locale) -

then maybe you should tell him/her about your predicament and see if

you can get some kinda " real " neurodegenerative dx based on your MRIs,

as opposed to so-called " lyme " disease. If that would let you reapply

for admin status. He might know of a good attention-getting name for

brain lesions + tissue loss with " uncertain cause. "
