Thursday, Oct. 20, 2011 – I spoke with the case manager at the insurance company this morning after getting home from not going to the hospital. She explained that there was some missing information that she had just received, so now the insurance company could move ahead with approval for my procedure. What a headache. I spent an hour on the phone figuring things out. Very tiresome!
The plan is to continue with starting my Neupogen shots tomorrow on Friday, Oct. 21. I’ll get those once a day for the next week or so. My Hickman Catheter placement is moved to Monday, Oct. 24, at 10 AM. Any thoughts, prayers, and positive energy you can send our way during that time would be GREATLY appreciated.
The GOOD NEWS is that because there was the delay with the insurance company’s approval, I get to enjoy one more weekend without a line hanging out of my chest. There’s always a silver lining!
