I HATE insurance companies! (vent)

in Pregnant after IF

I just found out at this point my disability has been denied. Apparently I don't have enough things wrong with me. My cervix shortened after one bad day aat work. At which point my MFM and OB both agreed I should stop working. BUt some witch sitting at a desk reading paper work doesn't agree. Last night I was in L&D with irritability, after doing jack sh** for 3 weeks. WTF. Do these people want me to go back to work and risk PTL. I'm hysterical. I of course am not going back to work either way because after all of this just trying to get pregnant I am NOT going to risk these babies. Maybe i'm being a little bit of a drama queen i don't know. My poor DH has been work overrtime and taking on call weeks just to make ends meet and we still aren't covering all the bills. UGGHH i just don't know what to do. ok hormonal hysterical vent over (at least on the bump, i'm pretty sure i'll continue to cry like a baby for a while poor dh)

    Don't take no for an answer. Keep pestering and resubmitting your request and having your OB/MFM badger them until it's approved.

    Deep breaths, and hugs.

    First of all, as hard as this is, you need to stay calm for the babies. Second of all, keep fighting to get what you need. Keep asking for a manager and then their supervisor and then their supervisor. Keep going above their heads. Finally, you have the right to be dramatic. You have spent a long time and a lot of money to make these babies. I would be worried about the condition you are in if I was, too. Good luck and I hope this gets taken care of.

    I second PPs.  You are NOT over-reacting.  This is a big deal, whatever the witch at the desk thinks.  Pester pester pester until you get what you know is best for yourself and your babies.  I'm sorry you're dealing with this.  GL.

    thanks guys for talking me down from the pregnancy ledge. Unfortunatly my doctor seems to come from the school of thought if it ain't real bad who cares. After telling me it would be good to go on disability 3 weeks ago he's now saying he's not surprised it didn't get approved. would have been nice to know that before hand. so now i'm left with decision to go back to work 12 hour shifts on my feet and risk it or choose what bills not to pay. i would think the panic attack i had in the office would have been enough for him to atleast consider it but nope he just went about his business typing *** into his little labtop (probably "pt is a mental case and a big cry baby.")i'll talk to my high risk doc next week but i feel like i'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. now would have been a most excellent time for a friggin jack and coke!
