Both boys had there tonsils out. First one cost us about $2,500 to $3,000 iirc. In the meantime we switched to a different plan second boys tonsils same surgeon same everything. $100 co pay. Wife and I both looked at each other like that can't be right. Should've switched plans years ago. We use a plan where whoever you see has to be in network and I think that scares a lot of people off. We've had zero issues with that aspect. No more deductible just a co-pay. Saves us thousands every year.
Bingo! Called the insurance co. and this was the problem. Confirmed with them that if a different coding was provided then it would be covered. Called the billing department for the hospital and explained things and they said they would send it for a review because of my initial symptoms for the visit and go from there. Everything is on hold until they make a decision. Sounds good for now! Fingers crossed.
Good deal.
Whatever. I got my ass handed to me. Felt fine once we got back to town but still started breathing harder just by doing simple things, even after getting home. It's gotten better over time so the idea of some kind of viral infection makes sense. Too late to test for any of that. So, if nothing else, I'm on cholesterol meds now and found out my PSA number is still low. My thyroid deal does seem to be a problem. Not sure how it affects anything but I guess I'll find out more as I go. I even started a GLP-1 and am losing some weight to help myself out. I've had this belly for many years and even though my weight hasn't really changed in the last 10 years it's time to get rid of what I can.
Heart rate is off. Finger monitor shows 155 and the folks that ran my stress test said 163 was their target. Time for a shower.
