I'm not starting this thread to debate whether or not PFO testing is necessary so please don't take it there. I've decided that before I get too far into technical diving I'd like to be screened for a PFO. I spoke to my Dr. today and he gave me a prescription for a TEE. After speaking with his nurse it seems the problem is going to be getting the insurance to cover it. I do have a major health insurance company and right now my prescription has a diagnosis of headaches, with a TEE recommendation to R/O PFO. Because I have reoccurring "headaches". For those of you that have been sucessful in getting your insurance to cover a TEE and have not suffered DCS what have you used for a diagnosis?
