  1. Glad they were able to figure it out & get it fixed. It sounds awful. Good luck to you
  2. So sorry you had such an awful night
  3. Love love love the vst iPhone app!!
  4. Well I just mailed off my 2nd appeal letter. This one to the external appeals place or independence review organization not sure what the "technical" name is for it. I am SO NERVOUS!! If they deny me this time I don't know what I'll do as this is the end of the insurance road & self pay is not an option at this point in my life.
  5. Idk about that specific insurance but I have Highmark bcbs & the peer2peer did nothing for me. Good luck!!
  6. I'm sure trying too!! Thank you!!
  7. @lisahg...when you filed your external appeal how long did it take to get an answer? Just curious.
  8. Thank you!! I too have Highmark Bcbs. I had actually read your post a while back & that's what gave me some hope that maybe I too can win my case.
  9. I don't mind at all. I have Highmark Bcbs. Thank you I'll take all the prayers I can get!!
  10. Well the peer2peer didn't work & now they have denied my 1st appeal. I now have to write another appeal & send it to an external review company. This is crazy! I am getting so discouraged & feeling hopeless. But this is the surgery I feel is best for me so I guess I will keep fighting. Idk what else to do.
  11. My daughter is a competitive tumbler...so I'm a tumblersmom
  12. Good Luck 2 you!! Fingers crossed we both get some much needed good news!!
  13. Ok so I got word today that my pcp faxed in my 1st appeal to highmark today!! So fingers crossed that they will approve it this time!! I am so ready to have this done already!!
  14. Thank you!! I thought it was odd myself since the bypass is a more complicated & more expensive surgery.
