so for anyone discouraged, here is yet one more story of perseverance paying off
I know it may seem like it's never going to happen, or maybe something is trying to tell you not to do this....             ITS NOT            ..... it's just your silly insurance company throwing up more hoops for you to jump through, hoping you'll get tired and just quit....         take the last laugh and beat them at their own game,    never give up on you

Congrats to you.

Thank you for writting all that today,  I needed it.  I have cigna as well and was just denied but I just sent back the paperwork they were requiring. 

I'm not giving up!
