Friends,

I live in DFW area and my colonoscopy is not covered by Insurance due to pre existing conditions. Are you guys aware of any facilities that do cheaply without going through Insurance? Any recommendations will be appreciated.

Thanks

Use the insurance website and check cost estimates by zip code (in network out of network) . And then call them up for correct estimate without Insurance. 

 

Which Insurance ? 

[cvsvm18]

@psycontrI am still waiting for quote. They told me it is not covered. So anywhere between $2000 to $4000 (since anesthesia and other work is also involved)

@yemdoingIt is Anthem

I had the same issue with pricing and skipping through insurance nonsense. I found a decent option here: https://ginorthtexas.com/colon-cancer-screening-in-mckinney-your-path-to-prevention/ — they offer direct pay options and were up front about all costs. They were easy to deal with, and the staff actually answered all my questions without pushing anything extra. Might be worth checking if you're near McKinney.

Aadhi if you have problem getting stuff out of your back. I am told you are in pain doing loop and lot of constipation is there. 
 

er lo use chestharu anta. I used it myself. Poo came out smooth. Empty to colon before going to doctor also. 
 

don’t worry if worse case Botox or surgery ready ayipo. Better than pain.

Bro just go to India and make sure all is fine. Neeku Us lo appointment ke chala time paduthundhi forget about Insurance. Please don't neglect health especially like this. Money or visa over your health. Neeve happy ga helathy lekukuda what you will do. Colonoscopcy antunnavu means daily some digestion issues unde vuntayi believe me just go to India Ana check it up late ayyina no worries. 

[BacklogBadham]

I had some digestion issues American frozen foods valla even Entlo ne thinna vhal medicine used in late 30's but no result. India Vella oka 3 months strict ga doctor cheppindhe follow ayya with anti biotics after pro biotics and many combinations. Here anti biotics ki kuda show chestharu but sometimes you should clean your stomach with virus or polyps properly and start over again. USA lo chala kashtam adhi. Evarikanna digestion issues unte just go to India and use medicine aggressively and follow diet no alcohol please in that period. You will get your helathy life within 3 months. All you need to find best doctor whoever expert in that area not some chitty doctor. I went to one 1st lo with reference vadu arey babu solution cheppu ante USA foods meedha paddadu thiduthunnadu USA is waste blah blah ani laddu lo gas tables rasadu root cause chudakunda but I found perfect guy for my SIBO and IBS and that guy listen all my problems and 1st colonoscopcy chesadu cancer or something rule out ki. Nothing is there ani thelisaka SIBO and IBS my issues ani medicine echadu proper ga use chesa. I am not saying 100% eliminated ani but after that medicine I am 60% better e age lo. I can drink beer weekends lo happy ga can eat but I only drink and eat outside Indian food month lo once anthe. India lo ayyithe max entlo ne. All you have to do find a root casue. Some say fissure and something but look for SIBO and IBS. Be cause it is not popular in India and doctor simply say it's a gas if he doesn't know much. Just find your root cause and work on it. Good luck bros. #Happy Tummy 😋

All who all struggles with stomach or digestive issues look for SIBO and IBS. American foods valla it's very common here. Many think it's just a gas water thaagina bloating vasthundi avi unte especially 30's vachaka there are chances. It should come from anywhere someone plate or restroom or some surgery especially outside food or restaurant. If you feel gas or bloating low iron and nutrition lost just look for those and yes you will have anus Issues as well be cause you won't get free motion and you will hurt your anus with this. Some will have diarrhea and some have constipation. I been there and still sometimes I feel that even if I follow strict diet. Just check it 1st if you have any digestive issue. Don't come to conclusion like you have some colon cancer blood chudagane on ttissue paper it would be fissure from constipated as well. I had that. Sharing my experiences. Don't neglect and find a root cause and kill it starting lo ne 🙏
