Hi everyone,
I loved the doctor today. He was very positive and would not plan any course of action until further testing was done to see exactly what we are dealing with. However my insurance would not approve the needed tests. I have to go back to my PCP and she has to have all the tests done and then send the results to MDA. Then the doctor there plans a course of treatment and then my insurance will see if they will approve me to go there. I plan to fight their decision if they deny it. I know that is where I want to be and that is where I will be treated as far as I am concerned. So now in addition to praying for my health I must ask that you pray for me to be able to get where I need to be to be treated effectively. I will keep you all updated. My prayer list is growing and I do honestly feel stronger when I look at all the cities where prayers are being said.

    Hi Tracey, I will certainly keep you in my prayers. I'm glad you found a doctor you feel comfortable with. Hopefully you will get everything approved with the insurance co. & get on with finding out what needs to be done. Good luck to you. Judy
