Day 8: Today I made my daily phone call to the Authorization office at the hospital. I got through to S this time and he said the authorization was "pending". Movement! I asked them what would make it move from pending to approved. They replied that the insurance company needed to speak to my doctor. What?! I had my doctor call on Tuesday. They said they needed to talk to my doctor. I called my doctor and she said she did call them on Tuesday. Now the insurance company wants my file to go through a peer review. The insurance company thinks I have a cyst and I need to have a CT scan instead of a MRI. My doctor says I don't have a cyst so a CT scan won't do anything. I need a MRI. But if the insurance company wants to have me go through an extra test, well it is their money.
So now I wait. It is too late today for anything to happen so Monday is the next day to hear something. This is so crazy! Now I won't be able to get the tests until earliest Wednesday or Thursday and it will probably not be a MRI.
Weight update: 179.7 got to walk more.
Until tomorrow...
