Hi again all!
I'm the person who left the post
yesterday regarding my referral appt.
With a gyn. Yesterday, and my decision to
have a hyst.
Well, I walked in to that Dr. Office
and explained to the receptionist that I
didn't have insurance.....And she told me
that I would have to pay at least half the
bill right there and then....When I
explained that I didn't have $90 to dish
out, but I would make whatever payment
arrangements necessary....She basically
said "sorry, we can't help
you."....Needless to say I was very
distraught! Now i'm back to square
one...I called my regular doc..The one who
referred me to this chick, and he's making
other arrangements to help me out...I was
crying on the phone to his nurse..I was a
mess!
Anyhoo, if anyone could offer some moral
support, I could really use it right
now!!!
thanks in advance!

Hello, well I really hope everything works
out for you. I am a new member, that had
a hysterectomy about a year ago. I had
mine for endometriosis. You should ask
your doc if this could be a possibility.
I had real debilitating periods too,went
through all the treatment options and
ended up with the same symptoms after all
those. So I opted for the hyst. I think
that your doc should be able to help with
the problem with your ins. Situation. At
least get the other doc to set up a
payment plan. Good luck.
