My wife was in a major wreck that left her with a broken hip, muscle, and nerve damage. She was pregnant at the time and soon gave birth following the accident, however, the doctors could only help her with pain and could not treat the injury for fear of hurting the baby ( her request). She still has a fracture that did not come together and heal. We fuaght the disabillity thing and won but four years later it was taken away from her because she was "Re-evalutated by a quack. Now, she can't even get out of bed or walk. My wife is only 35 and I need to take her and have a real doctor correct this condition, if possible. I don't want to think that my insurance would not cover this because it is a (pre-existing condtion), after all, the best doctors that the government has say that there is nothing wrong with her. does anyone have any input? I can't see her it this pain anymore. It couldn't be pre-existing if the condition does not exist, am I right or just ignorant to the fact.

It's horrible, sometimes, how our own insurance treats us.
The only option, I can think of at this time, would be to take her in to a private doctor and pay for it in cash.
It is awful. I've got hip pain and it's absolute agony. I feel really bad for her!
Please give her wishes for recovery and I hope you can get helped.
Good luck

Have you spoken with your insurance company? Or go to a reputable doctor explain and see if they can get the insurance to cover it. Yes it is pre-existing. But couldn't be fixed at that time. Now it needs to be and by a doctor who knows what they are doing. When I broke my femur, I was seen by an orthopedic specialist. They can still do surgery to help relieve her pain.
