So, I'm on med leave, I'm getting ATP shots, and I'm just -loving- the insurance companies and how an insurance company nurse knows more about this disease than a specialist... (Yes, a little sarcasm there).
So in order to get the short term disability we've been paying for for years (sigh), I have to undergo more tests. Tests whose only purpose is to prove to the insurance company I really am sick.
Specifically, a functional capacity exam (do you know how hard it is to find someone who even knows what one is? We -finally- after a week have a name to call on Monday) and a neuro-psychological exam. I'm scheduled for the second on Thursday.
But the search to find someone on our side of town (instead of the 45 minutes to an hour it takes to get to the specialist) who will administer the ATP shots even if I have the things -in hand- continues. Unfortunately, mom and hubby both have problems with needles, so they can't do them.
I've learned the technique behind self administering, but haven't actually -tried- it yet. I may have to on the day of that test since Thursdays are my shot day.
Whee.
