The Block Ctr near Chicago - cost?

SophiaMarie

This sounds like something I've been looking for. And not too far since I'm in Southern WI. I was recently diagnosed with idc and will be having surgery on Monday. As of right now, I'm going ahead with conventional treatments, but I would love natural support.



My big problem is the financial end of it. We have state insurance which I'm sure wont pay for any of it, especially since its out of state, which I totally understand (I'm grateful to have it at all!). So if I paid for it out ofocket, how much are we talking? Thousands? Please tell me not more... Less would be nice, but hard to imagine...



Would they even see someone like me without "normal" insurance? I'm afraid to call and ask

- I know I'd get very emotional if turned away!
