To clarify, my issue is not so much paying for the fit myself. My biggest problem is finding a medical professional who understands my issues and guiding me through the process.
Most fitters I consulted said that they could work with me but most have limited understanding of my injuries and pain and refer back me to the doctors. The doctors prescribed injections. lots of pt which gets very expensive and it gets better. Then after a while it flares up again and I'm back to where I began.
