Well, I had blood test and the doc had his way with me in the "drop trousers" kinda way and took a sample of, ahhhhhh, you know.... And his office called today and said they were normal...

I donno... I had almost no pain all today.... I do have a little now but I went most of the day without any... The hospital wants $3900 to do the Cat scan but I talked with them and they are willing to make a deal!!! They say that they will take the amount that the insurance will pay and deduct 25% of that amount if I pay them up front... Hmmmmmm???

Right now I don't want the insurance company doin' too much sniffin' 'round... I'd like to get the appeal thing over and be reclassified as a Level 2 as of the date I enrolled and then hit 'um with the bad news (for them, that is...)

I'm gonna follow Spawzer's advice and call the doc and tell him that I went all day without any pain and ask him, based on the negative Poo-test and negative blood work if maybe there's a cheaper way to go that ain't gonna freek out the insurance company... You know, like, "Well, Boberdz, it's time for yer "routine" colon check up, ain't it"...

I donno...
