Hi. I am in Albuquerque too. Your questions have probably been answered but I too have Blue Cross/Blue Shield. They would've covered my surgery but boy do they make you do a lot. I understand why they do.... but...... Anyway.... I am lucky enough to have family who is helping me pay for my procedure. I am going to Houston. I would love to hear how you are doing!!!! Good luck!!

I hate the insurance world. I think they make it so hard that they hope people will just say "forget it". Makes me mad and sad. They don't take care of people the way I think they should. Let me know how it goes and good luck to you.
