Doctors & Gyno

[Coop77]

Uh.. your insurance company doesn't see results of your lab work. Only your doctor does. Your insurance is not going to get canceled.

Just tell your doctor you use steroids and get your gyno treated. That's what I did. Never had a problem. The only danger in telling your doctor about your steroid use is if you ever have to apply for your own health insurance and they want to see your doctor's records, in which case just say you don't have a doctor.

Not sure about every state, by my FIL runs an "urgent/primary care clinic" in Florida.. They take cash, barter (especially these days), insurance, you name it. They don't check your ID, and many of their customers don't have it anyway.. If you provide them your insurance and info, still doesn't mean they are going to call up blue shield to report a "possible" or even admitted steroid user. First, they will lose a customer, second, the insurance company that has been paying them for that client will stop paying the provider, and since most providers are at least 120 days behind in their accounts receivable, that could add up to a big financial loss. They have a hard enough time getting paid already. A physician is professionally and ethically bound to provide health care regardless of circumstances of an individual.

My FIL charges about $100 for a 20 minute consult and scrip, labs are extra (sent out) and charged through him, he just marks them up $5-10 bucks... I would bet your average cash only urgent care oral meds treatment of gyno would cost you more or less $200-$300, completely off of insurance..Most come in for vaccines, flu/colds, scrapes, small fractures, stitches, pulls and whatnot. I bet if he got a huge guy with bitch tits, he would probably enjoy the change of pace.

The faster you get it treated, the better chance you have of a medical option, rather than surgical. I see gyno reduction in South East Asia going for $1,500 or so... However, I digress....
