I Can Race It,

You didn't say anything to upset me.

I have been down in the dumps. BC/BC
Gave me a determination on my external appeal. They said no for my cervical 2 level ADR. The reasoning was that I don't have spinal stenosis at level C 4-5 even though they had copies of 2 MRIs that clearly stated I did. I am trying to wrap my head around doctors and diagnostic testing that say I need a treatment yet I was clearly denied

It said I could get ADCF or ADR at C5-6 but I'm not even certain of that. I'm clearly confused and speechless with this whole process. It is swallowing me whole.....
