Dee...

I'd be exhausted also. I am so upset about these insurance companies. I

understand the money issue but personally if your dr says you need it and you

know what you want...give us a little credit knowing what is best for us.

One size surgery does not fit all!!!!

hang in there...I never got anything approved but Ihave Regence and they are

HORRIBLE and if I could I would switch in a heartbeat or move where the DS is

covered. However...since I love my house and where I live...I just shelled

out the money figuring I was worth the investment. I'm now working on what my

next step is to begin pushing for changes. I don't know about the rest of

the country but in my area DSHS and Medicare have been coverage than I

do....LOL

I hope you win...and get something done with your insurance. I'll be rooting

for you !!!
