I am currently in nj visiting family. It might not be until Tuesday but I would be happy to share all my info with everyone. #1 key, get your congressman involved and your surgeon in the appeal process. Also evidence-based practices and studies showing that ADR is better, cheaper, faster recovery rate and hospital stay than Fusion. let them know that you have exhausted every option with eastern and western medicine and that you refuse to get a fusion. I also told the third party that It was my body and I should have a say on what is best for me and my body. Will post later when I have more time.

Colorado Babe - you refer to evidence-based practices & studies showing ADR is better and cheaper than fusion. Can you share this information? As many people are going through insurance like you are, either pre-surgery or post-surgery, this documentation is very relevant. While we all have different insurance carriers and different individual circumstances, the same evidence can readily be used.
If you prefer to pm me, I am available.
