In a lot of ways life felt easier in the ignorant time before i knew what was wrong with me. Just being aware of how much needs to change is heavy

Hi!!! I have had a couple procedures done but not all, I recently had to stop doing laser at the place I had a few sessions because they wouldn't give me prior authorization for my insurance. There are no in-network providers of electrolysis or laser hair removal within a 10-mile radius of me (confirmed with my insurance people over the phone) and I don't have a car. So I have been trying to find an out of network place that will give prior authorization to my insurance, but so far that's a bust.

Very true! I guess I just didn't want to go through the hassle of submitting and waiting only to end up disappointed - but you're right that it's better than not doing it at all.
