Chuck, fight to defend your health! What do you think the right course of action is medically -- and are they denying you this? I think I know the answer...just wondering if you have the specific medical solution planned.
Lot of folks have appealed and won, but much of them seem to be won through sheer tenacity or luck. Some of the recent wins have been more formulaic (Tim, Leanne), feel free to email or PM them asking for their help.
Hang tough, do the right thing for your health!
