Dear Lisa -
Just another headache you don't need. I suppose you have tried all the usual avenues to get the spine CT approval - letters from your doc pointing out your situation which is documented in your file.
Sure hope this will change course and once you win the initial battle with the ins people you will get the tests required to keep on top of those mets. Hopefully the new treatment is working against those mets and they will be nonexistent, but you still need to monitor that.
Keep us posted, as you are one of the pros in navigating that system.
