I am sorry to hear about this.  You should find a doctor who is willing to give you an MRI.  If the doctor you are currently seeing is unwilling to order an MRI for you, you should consider getting a new doctor.  If you are saying you were denied by your insurance company, you need to find out why and see what you can do to get approval.  If they still deny you, you may want to consider getting the MRI anyways, and paying for it out of pocket, and then later submitting for reimbursement.  You may not be reimbursed but if you really need the MRI for your medical treatment, you should consider getting it and paying for it out of pocket if possible. I hope you can get something worked out. Best of luck!
