    A year ago I was changed from Harvard Pilgrim insurance which always covered whatever my doctors ordered to BCBS PPO which has denied coverage for prescriptions (usually they allow me about 1/4 of the number of pills prescribed), blood tests, and treatments (Cyberknife and RFA). My Onc and I decided to wait on the procedure and he will battle BCBS for me when we feel it’s time. I hate BCBS (blue cross bull shit), we shouldn’t have to fight with for-profit companies, we’re all dealing with enough already. I will suggest you ask your Onc to try to get BCBS to cover it for you.
    Good luck.

    My thanks to all of you for your wisdom and help. I met with the Cyber Knife team a few days ago and am looking forward to getting the procedure done. I also met with my Oncologist again, I really wanted to know what my prognosis is, he told me they don’t know, it could be months before another growth appears or it could be years, I’m shooting for years. I’m feeling a little more positive about my future, I don’t expect to live to be an old lady, but I’m not ready to quit yet either.
