Thanks Survivor :),
I was thinking about physical therapist and thanks for telling me how you found one < 3. It is the same here - a good physical therapy place is booked and usually not covered with mediocre health insurance plan like we have. It is United but we have super huge deductible :(. Without doctor's referral we would have to pay 100% of a bill. Rates here are from $160 to $300 an hour for specialized therapist. But what can one do - it is how it is ...
It seems that one can get referral only if there is a problem, as always, in the USA prevention does not exist as a concept, just expensive fixing of problems *eyeroll .

I would think your deductible would be gone by now with all the CT's and MRI's and what-not, especially if treatment is planned this year.
That being said, I spent about $8K of my own money for the trainer (she's very good and quite expensive), but my rationale was that "I can't spend it if I'm dead and it's worth $8K to be continent and sexually able".
No judgement, but it was easy for me to decide to spend whatever it took to get through it all with as few side effects as I was able to control as possible.
