  3. Hi, i am so close to just giving up on this whole thing.. For the past 6 months it has been nothing but hurdles. You know getting pushed back again. Well on Monday the 14th I should have my surgery, after a mess up with my health ins the Drs sent the referral to the wrong insurance. Faxed it into the right one on Thursday great right.. Well I have been calling twice a day to check on it to see if it was approved.. Well this morning I called was told it was being reviewed great right.. This afternoon I called and was told it was declined when I asked why I was told not enough of a medical necessary.. Shocked I was called back again just to make sure I was hearing it right and this time I was told it was still being reviewed. I am so ready to give up.. Day 10 on the liquid diet for what.. And to top it off I am grieving the loss of foods
