Hey Chelee,

I am so sorry you are having to go through this. I feel your pain with Doctors and Insurance.

Have you thought about a second opinion? Maybe he/she would want to give you a scan so they could check things out thoroughly themselves.

Also, have you thought about getting out of your HMO during open enrollment? I know there is no perfect insurance out there, but maybe it is time for a change.

Best of luck to you. I am praying that is nothing.

Anita
