What a pain in the ass!
I do like your use of...Ugh! What a pain in the ass!<br />I do like your use of the word shit and WTF :)<br />They're fantastic adjectives, especially when EDS and other fun have created a shit-storm.<br /><br />Sorry to hear that you're having troubles with insurance and everything else. Stress-crying sucks, and they come with the worst head-aches. <br /><br />Please take care of yourself and be sure to eat something delicious. I think ice-cream makes the world a better place.<br /><br />Sending juju xxNakkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05002509830552516954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-395794814444141925.post-37133161249082656772011-04-29T18:56:47.791-04:002011-04-29T18:56:47.791-04:00I just wrote a long comment but blogger wouldn'...I just wrote a long comment but blogger wouldn't publish it.<br /><br />So in short I shall try hard to condense that which I wrote.<br /><br />It makes me angry to read over and over again of Insurance Companies appearing to make things as difficult as possible and therefore creating stress and upset to people who simply do not deserve to be treated thus.<br /><br />I cannot claim to even begin to understand the complex systems with regard to health care as I live in the UK. I know people here do complain about the thatNational Health Service and some do have the benefit of private insurance. But on the whole the NHS does provide and we are lucky.<br /><br />I fail to see how a supposedly civilised society think a system is humane which means that those that have get treated and those that don't do not. Its just shameful yet I read in the blogosphere of it over and over again.<br /><br />I can only offer my genuine empathy and a gentle virtual hug. I just wish I could make this stress go away for you and then you would need to shed no tears.<br />xoxoxoxoAcheloishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13489197508242501952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-395794814444141925.post-90286303059175719602011-04-29T16:42:18.003-04:002011-04-29T16:42:18.003-04:00Thanks for the hugs and happy thoughts!
I just go...Thanks for the hugs and happy thoughts!<br /><br />I just got this insurance in December. The woman I talked to was great--stayed on the phone with me to explain what I need to do. It's a 1 year waiting period for anything that has been treated in the 6 months prior to joining the insurance. Now, I don't really have any treatment for the EDS. I just manage on my own. But the last 1.5 years, I've been straight out seeing doctors for the UCTD and that's the disease that I take all my medication for and require regular lap work ups, EKG's, etc for. That's the one that's going to end up an issue. A big one.<br /><br />But as long as I get the paperwork I need from my old insurance, it will be waived. Now guess how easy my old insurance is making that? I need one fax from them that states my starting and end dates with their company. But apparently, that's damn near impossible.

You'd th...Sending you Hugs and Happy thoughts!<br /><br />You'd think that insurance providers, of all people, should know that "young" does not equal "healthy."<br /><br />Two questions for you: how long have you been with this insurance company, and did they specify "pre-existing" or "previously diagnosed" conditions? There could be a huge difference there, as a genetic disorder is obviously pre-existing, but may not have been diagnosed until later. (Yay for a rudimentary understanding of legalities!)BubbleGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00932935674980101062noreply@blogger.com
