    I'm turning to thr greater mountainbike community for help.

    My insurance has turned down my re hab options, and the Doctors are scrambling for options.
    I'm really looking for advice from any of you that have encountered something similar. Proper re HAB will allow me to return to work and be active with my 10 year old son or even travel to see him.

    I have a DVT in my broken leg. DVT is a blood clot. The clot was isolated with surgery. The Dr's are waiting for my blood to assimilate cumadin instead of me requiring heparin for which I still receive.
    I've been in the hospital since Monday i have had two surgeries one for clot and one for broken leg.
    The re HAB facility I was praying for is not conducive with my insurance.

    I thank you in advance for suggestions. I have been doing in bed re HAB for lungs and clutch or pedal motions with feet. Yesterday I started quad tightening exercises.

    What ins do u have? And is it HMO or PPO? When u say conducive, do mean non-contracted?

    I'm a healthcare executive and may be able help.

    I have a PPO GEHA 1st health. I'm in Cheeno Valley hospital. I have too low of INR which means I can't go home on heparin but once I do I have no care!
