This went on for 7 months until I received spine surgery. Then, I spent 5 months recovering.

I received spinal injections, physical therapy, pain killers ranging from morphine to perceset, relentless treatment after treatment, surgery, etc, etc.

All I want is to collect for the year I missed work because of the injury, no monthly checks or any of that bullshit. I paid in since my first job at 15 years old. They denied without requesting to have me see a doctor, or to verify any information with my doctors, including the neurosurgeon who performed my surgery and agrees that I was without a doubt "disabled" for that year long period.

There is absolutely no reason I should pay for this INSURANCE when it doesn't cover what it's supposed to anyway.
