Has anyone been told they have to wait long term before having surgery when getting new insurance?

I RECENTLY GOT INSURANCE AND......I RECENTLY GOT A JOB AND MY INSURANCE WENT INTO EFFECT AUG. 1ST. I WENT TO SEE DR. LANE IN MOBILE AND I HEARD YESTERDAY THAT I WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MAY 2, 2002 BEFORE I HAVE SURGERY BECAUSE OF A WAITING PERIOD. WHAT SHOULD I DO APPEAL OR WHAT? HOW CAN IT BE A LONG TERM ILLNESS WHEN I HAVE NOT BEEN TO THE DR FOR THIS PROBLEM BEFORE? THANKS FOR ANY HELP. [email protected]
