Greatly appreciate any help...Im obviously desperate to continue to move as much as possible, thank you

  1. Hi there, ! I can understand your drive to explore every possible option to maintain mobility and quality of life. Regarding HGH and hormone therapy, it might be worth consulting a rheumatologist or endocrinologist familiar with these treatments. Here is a link to a rheumatologist directory- https://my.rheumatology.org/rheumatology-provider-directory. You could also try reaching out to larger medical centers or academic hospitals near you as some of them offer treatments that are more likely to work with insurance. I hope you're able to make progress in finding a doctor who can support you. Please feel free to keep us updated! Kindly, Latoya (Team Member)
