battle of the offices

so i had my assesment and they wanted me to come pick up the letter and mail it to my health insurance company. my health insurance company will only take it if it is directly from the Drs office. the IC wont give the the fax number so i have to give the DR office the phone number to call and get the fax number. the Drs office said that they dont do that stuff becuase they are too busy. i begged and she said that she will try to do it monday. im going to call back on monday and see if it went down or not. this is stupid. if it isnt their job than whos is it?

 

the Drs office doesnt think they IC will take it cause i dont have dibeties, high blood pressure, or sleep apnia(that we know of) but my body mass index is 42. its low..... so i dont know i mean i could have sleep apnia my aut grandma and dad have/had it so its possible but im going to try this first and if they dont take it ill make an apointment.
