Hi,
Since April, I have had a sudden bout of mild cardiomyopathy, and I have some associated symptoms such as exercise intolerance. A couple professionals have told me that it may have been caused by a virus, being so sudden - and I WAS very sick the week before my first episode. I'm interested in getting the viral tests (and associated co-infections, maybe candida, etc - basically whatever Enlander recommends), and if something pops up, seeing a specialist like Dr. Enlander, since he has the reduced rate if you talk through Skype.
My insurance (Qualcare) uses Quest, could they provide reliable results for these sort of labs? It may be my only option, as funds are extremely limited. Would insurance even cover these sorts of tests, especially without a diagnosis? Maybe I can use Cardiomyopathy as a diagnosis?
Thank you for any advice!
