Usual insurance restriction that I've seen is they have to do an XRay first even for obvious soft tissue injury.

Predominantly a waste of time, but there you go.

They just want to make sure there's no more metal in my eyes pre-MRI. I appreciate that. It sounds like too much excitement to me.

MRI is scheduled for next Monday evening.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

They are somewhat tetchy about metal around MRI's.

I just rested my finger on the trigger, no worries.

I'm sure you heard about my medical issues last summer. The 'process' is ludicrous. You can't get a staright answer about billing from anyone...even the insurance company.

You get Medicare involved, and the bullshit spirals.

You got me started...I officially hate you. :-* ;D

Uh oh.  Nate's (legit) triggered.       ;)




The Baconator is doing better, thanks.   No idea what bug he got but by 10am this morning he was done and crashed hard for 3 hours.  I waited as long as I could to hit the road for work.  Was going to pay the consequences and have him stay home but he was really excited when I started loading up so he went with me as planned.  Ate a small bland dinner tonight w/o issue.   [thumbsup]   Learned a neighbor dog had something similar a few days ago.... coincidence?
