I've been through some ime's and fce. They all hurt me, exacerbated my disability symptoms and increased severe pains. At one point, they wanted me to travel 100+ km for another assessment. My Dr's wrote letters advising that another apt and travelling was excessive and would exacerbate my symptoms. They backed off.
Thanks for your comment, and sorry to hear that. Your insurance provider should not put you in harm's way or make your condition worse just to have you reviewed by their doctors. Your own doctors were right to put their foot down. If you're in Canada, and experience this sort of treatment again in the future, please contact us at 1-855-821-5900 so that we can push back against the insurance company and prioritize your health and wellbeing. Take care!
