Everyday I start out great. Everyday by the end of the day I'm feeling sad and alone. I worry about everything these days. I try not to but I just can't help it these days. I'm stressed about all the money I'm spending because of my eye injury and now diabetes. I also found out that I was misled by my doctors office regarding the coverage. Since my company was sold in the middle of treatment, I was told by my RE's office that the bills should go through WIN Fertility. They told me to bring copies in or fax them over if I were to get bills from anyone. Now suddenly, I talked to WIN and they said they don't manage the professional services (hospital and anesthesia). They said they just pass those on to Cigna as is. Well, that's great. Isn't that something I should have known before we moved forward? It's almost 9K worth of bills that should have been $250. Big mistake if you ask me and not to be taken lightly. We don't have 9K and I refuse to use my baby fund to pay this bill. It's really getting me down and I'm sick about it. Every time I think we are getting ahead, something sets us back. My HR administrator has been helping me sort through everything. She was very upset when I told her the outcome. She wants to put in a complaint. When J comes home, I think he needs to contact the billing departments and set up a plan to pay them back before they go into collections. Maybe they can reduce the bill by half. It's worth finding out. Maybe we can still try and appeal. I guess I'm so frustrated because if I knew for sure that I would have to pay after the sale, I would have cancelled the cycle. It wouldn't have been worth it for just a 5% chance.
Anyway, the only good thing going on is my dedication to sticking to this diet to get healthy and lower my blood sugar. I have another appointment with a diabetes educator and a dietician next week. I've lost about 4-5 lbs already and it gives me motivation to keep it up. My goal is to lose at least 20 if not 30 lbs. I'm not sure I can make it to 30 lbs but I'll try. Everyone who knows me says the same thing. "Your not obese, why do you have diabetes?" Obviously, that doesn't matter. I want to be very healthy for next year. I still plan to move forward on doing DE/IVF. I try to focus on that because it's most important to me now.
