denial over-turned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just got word that I have been approved to have surgery after they received my appeal letter! I have not received a surgery date yet but they say it most likely will be in late January!
Thank you so much to Roberta for the great advise on how to appeal it, it worked!
And to everybody who is going through the appeal process.... don't give up!!! All the anxiety and stressing out was worth it for this moment!
Thanx for all of your support!!!
