How can ye honestly go cap in hand looking for sponsors when this shite is going on?
He’s not even a physio.
I suspect you’re taking the piss. I hope you are.

How much is an MRI generally guys? Might get my knee checked out, getting some swelling after matches and such of the knee I had the cruciate done on, I know you generally have keyhole surgergy to clear up cartilage some years laters. It’s about 8 years now since I did mine.

Will my health cover reimburse me or can I get it paid through them?

€250 I think.

VHI will cover it if you have been referred by a GP.

Cool.

Thanks bro.

Cheapest place I found at the time was out beside the VHI place in Dundrum. Think it was around 200 but that was a few years ago now.

How many years ago?

It won’t cover any rehab or physio thereafter I think. Is that correct?

Gaa club insurance is worthless.

Will they do a special rate on 2 knees?

I would say maybe 6.

They will. Just keep them close together.

Just googled it there. They are now called Affidea although they weren’t that when I did it. Price range of €200-295 listed on their website for an MRI and it is covered by VHI.

I know. I had an MRI with Affidea (formerly Euro Medic) in Northwood on Saturday.

Will I be charged more or less because I have legs like Zambrotta?

Less.

I think VHI will only pay for MRI if referred by consultant.

Euro medic, that’s it. Couldn’t think of it.

What did they charge you, bud?

Nothing. I am on the vhi

I wasn’t at the time. It was a tumultuous period in my life and I was going through a number of changes and starting to get hair in strange places.

Was it an ovarian cyst?
