Yikes, Cheryl !! Pinkeye is nasty, and every time you lie down the eye feels as if it would burst from pressure.
It is a lousy business about these referrals. The objective of the insurance company is to make it as hard as legally possible for the "customer"I despise that word in reference to medical care!to obtain compensated services for which the insurance purveyor is liable. As was pointed out to me last yearmaybe on this line?why is it that the credit card company has complete information about us anytime they need to contact us, but insurance companies always have us fill out new forms listing all the facts they must already have on record? Anyway, for me, the less I know about how badly I am being shafted by an institution for which there is nothing to be done, the better I feel. Ignorance is bliss in that case, since there is nothing to do, and it just makes the blood boil and leads me into another attack of muscle contractions, and keeps me lying awake with a sore heart, when I should be sleepingdo you know what I mean here? I will prey for better results for you than you have had, and peace of heart and mind, so as to conserve your strength for the fights you face ahead.
