Late bloomers?
You raise a valid point, Karren. I wouldn't think there are many post-age 65 SRS procedures performed, but aren't there people under 65 on Medicare, too?
I imagine a very compelling case would have to be demonstrated to get coverage for SRS through Medicare if it's ever allowed, much like private medical insurance policies.
In general, though, I think the medical establishment downplays the seriousness of GID and leaves lots of troubled people hanging out to dry.
