sclerotherapy I am upset as to why insurance companies give patients such a hard time covering this procedure. We aren't talking cosmetic when they are painful, large and spreading. We are not talking about being fair when most patients, like myself would prefer this less invasive procedure to vein ligation at least as a first step. Has anyone has success with medical coverage and sclerotherapy? I have researched it and think it's the best procedure for me right now.
