Yes, this is a major part of what is wrong with health care in the U.S.<br />I am hoping that with the conservative training you are doing that you're able to eventually heal enough to push hard again (stranger things have happened). If, 6 months from now, you are again denied surgery and have made no headway in getting it paid for, let me be the first to sign on to help out with whatever fund raising events could happen that could help to raise money and get you the procedures you need to be able to continue to pursue your running career.<br />take care,<br />~BethBeth Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01709164707656340753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459221121930854242.post-9441624965459701462009-08-28T13:28:46.809-07:002009-08-28T13:28:46.809-07:00I'm with Matt, you've gotta find a way to ...I'm with Matt, you've gotta find a way to make that sucker grow. Also, I could be mistaken, but I do believe that would be covered in Canada. Even from a purely financial point of view, isn't your OVERALL healthy lifestyle going to save them money on your care in the long run? Talk about short-sighted.NBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16640549653079787495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459221121930854242.post-33705042934455317422009-08-28T13:26:28.002-07:002009-08-28T13:26:28.002-07:00Wow.

I had meniscus surgery a few years ago and the health insurance tried about five ways to avoid paying for it. Finally they did though - my magic was going through all the PT recommended pre-surgery. If you can survive the 6 months they note it should improve in (I know, I know... it won't) maybe then they will. Good luck getting back to healthy again!

Sorry to hear it, man. Good luck - hopefully the slate of good runs lately is a sign that things are improving and this is just there to prevent what is hopefully an unnecessary surgery no matter what you've been told.
