tatianak2,

Welcome... I'm sorry about your situation. I've been doing this for nealy 10 years and know literally hundreds of ADR patients. A few get it covered, but sadly, most self pay. I've had clients who are high powered lawyers and doctors. Not all of them get it covered, but from their position of power, more of them are successful. It frustrates me to see people to whom the money means nothing, get it covered; while those who spend thier savings future retirement income on the surgery, must self-pay.

If you contact me off the forum, I can send you some successful appeal docs. I'm still in Europe now, but will be home mid-week.

Good luck! All the best,

Mark
