You might want to try Fred Rayner at Applied Biomechanics. He does amazing work with braces (premade or custom). He has gone to bat with the insurance company several times.

Having seen the difference that it has made for boozymatic, my advice is to most definitely get good-quality, properly fitting braces for your wrists to wear at night. Get them first, find out about coverage later.

Your worrying about calling her is much worse than actually picking up the phone and doing it. Fear works that way.
