Hi............Sorry. haven't been able to be here for awhile I spent 7 day's in hospital with heart failure then had to return to the hospital 3 time's after I was discharged...
Anyway's had my husband a apt @ U of U clinic but they called to confirm insurance and told me that our insurance was not in their network we would have to pay outta pocket... And it could reach 45 Thousand dollars for just this year.... so I called the neurologist and she was suppose to call m back to tell m where I could take him thats was covered on our insurance, that was over a week ago......he has an apt on the 7th so i figure she is just waiting to speak to us face to face....
in the mean time he saw our family Dr last week and he pretty much confirmed that it is MND, and he would be referring him to the neuro that he saw for his full time care from this point on.....
He is getting worse and I see it everyday I can't hardly understand him anymore and his balance is terrible... is it time to apply for our insurance benefit for long term disability or short term.... ????
I know we have to wait for SSI or SSDI and it may not be approved for 6 months. I don't think he can continue working for much longer even though he loves his job and dose not wanna leave it. And they are being really good to him, I wont be able to return to work for about 4 more week's depending on how enlarged my heart still is..... Please help with any info Thank you.....:shock::???:
