My doctor ordered blood work in December. It's May. I still don't have results.

Denied. Not medically necessary. Resubmitted with documentation. Denied again. Formal appeal 30 to 60 days. Meanwhile I'm still exhausted, still don't know why, and still paying 310$ a month for insurance that apparently doesn't cover routine labs my doctor ordered.

I've been on hold more times than I can count. I've filled out forms. I've had my doctor's office go to bat for me twice. Every time I think it's moving forward something else stalls it.

I don't even need anything exotic. Metabolic panel. Thyroid. Some vitamin levels. The kind of thing that gets ordered every day in every doctor's office in the country.

I genuinely don't know what to do next and I'm so tired of fighting for something this basic.
