I called my GP about sending a referral and my test to a neurosurgeon in Abilene. Also hoping to get a few pain pills. It usually takes hours to call back, so I talked to my insurance company, he called the optometrist, got back to me, and said they won’t be telling me I have to take and pay for an unnecessary test again. Meanwhile I missed a callback from GP nurse. I called back, but no answer, so I’m staying off the phone.

“said they won’t be telling me I have to take and pay for an unnecessary test again”

That’s wonderful! I never would have thought of calling an insurance company about it. I figure they just cover whatever and don’t get involved in the medical part. So that’s good to know.

Hope your GPS nurse gets back to you quick. It’s a pain being in limbo.

I put on my back brace again. I can’t use it for sleeping but it does well the rest of the time. I thought it would end up compressing my rib and feel worse, it’s strange how the pain just goes away.

I hope you get your important phone call soon.

Sounds like you have things well in hand.

Glad your insurance company was willing to jump in and straighten out the optometrist.

Are you going to get another appointment with them?
