Another 1st Day Back ...

Hello,

I made it through the day. I am currently exhausted only being home 2 hours. My leg is very uncomfortable. I got a call from the doctor's office, but only to confirm my appointment with her in the morning. I also returned home from work today to find a letter from the insurance company stating that they approved Thursdays CT scan, but would not cover any further tests unless a prior authorization was in place PRIOR to setting a date of service. Now ... here is my take on that one, it would appear that a doctor's order of STAT means absolutely nothing in regard to whether one has insurance or not. That those at the insurance companies, and most of those I will tell you have nothing more than a BS, and that is if we are lucky, calling the shots on MY life, over that of a MEDICAL DOCTOR!!!

Tell me folks, what is wrong with this picture??? I will make sure that someone pays dearly if needed treatment goes undone any longer than it already has. What is the difference in this sort of action in comparison to what some feel is socialist, or communist medical care that goes on in other countries. I have seen this sort of treatment and insurance company BS play out too many times already, and if I too, must be one of thier victims, someone is going to pay, and many are going to hear about it.

I am really tired and am uncomfortable, as my right leg is pretty much been "asleep" since before 3 pm. I will post the so-called findings tomorrow, .... or will try depending on my frame of mind. Hillary and I have had discussions to date, she wants to be with me for my 11:15 appointment, however, an appointment for Maggie had already been made and Hillary will be doing that at 11:30. I will do this one in physical presence, on my own, and knowing I have, again, many people with me in spirit. I know what some of you are thinking, but my Maggie needs to be healthy to look after me as well. She has been in recent weeks sort of clingy and I wonder if it is due to her own allergies, or she senses something wiht me that she can't verbalize. She has been more close, like sleeping on me instead of just near me.

I wish everyone a restful evening ... (If I can't succeed, perhaps you can on my behalf)

Thanks to Mom D and Bee for your comments .... your honesty is much appreciated. :D

Peace and Light

PS: I am thinking that in this recent photo of Maggie (above) with a friend of Hilly's, that maybe she doesn't care whose ass she is curled up with .... lol ... she just wants to be one of the girls!!!
