WORD. Just, this has been my experience with PTs vs. OTs also. The PTs I have had: some were somewhat useful, but none "got it," and many were mostly useless or occasionally harmful. The two OTs I've had ACTUALLY GOT IT and taught me USEFUL THINGS and one of them was the one who suggested I look into an EDS diagnosis and referred me to the rheumatologist who finally helped me get that, so, woo. Ugh sorry your insurance sucks. :( :(
