 Member Since: 11/12/08 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 11/6/11 8:02 am I have a condition called hydrenitis. I have massive boils due to my weight. I am on medicare and the medicade waiver program and live in Ohio. I will never be able to get in a public pool or sauna due to my cronic drainage. I was wondering if any one knows if my insurances would pay for a hot tub spa or pool so that I can soak these boils with epson salts. My morbid obesity keeps me from walking and water therapy seems to be a good choice for me. Any ideas would be awsome. thanks |

The condition you have with the boils sounds pretty awful and I imagine that it would be really nice to soak in your own private hot tub. Keep researching and don't give up! Good luck. Sandy  |

I know on your tax return, you can write off the cost of creating a place to put the hot tub (i.e., room addition, etc.) Check it out. Any little bit helps. Sue  |
