Biopsy Results/Fighting Insurance
a year ago
General
Bit of an update;
Biopsy came back cancerous but they did get most of it with the surgery so I won't need standard chemo/radiation, they want to put me on a pill form of chemo but the insurance is being whatever with me and doesn't want to cover it....and its like 700$+ for a 30 day supply....which I definitely can't afford, especially after resigning from my job because they refused to give me any paperwork I needed to get disability payments or food stamps started until I resigned (Which I know is bs but I really didn't have the energy/want to fight it so I just resigned)...I did end up getting food stamps started thankfully but on the other hand with disability.....I haven't even been able to start the process for disability because my local office is always closed and the website never wants to work, so I basically have to have someone drive me out an hour or more to the next office which may not be open either (Because our local one said open on their website multiple times when we tried to go and they were closed anyways)
On the plus side I am feeling a lot better than I was pre-surgery, I'm out of PT, OT, and Speech Therapy now and back at home drawing and such, relatively back to normal, only had to use a wheel chair a few times for long distance things and I'm not even using a cane anymore unless its longer distances/places I can't sit down often, so that's a major plus.......I am just worried if I don't start this new chemo med soon ill have to do standard chemo/radiation.....but yeah that's my little update for you guys, if you have any questions/comments feel free to put them below.
