i've got my first appointment with a specialist i've had in years and years. which was the other shitty part about being denied insurance- specialists, at least the ones i need to see (endocrinologists mostly) won't even make an appt to see you if you don't have insurance.
heck, even when you do have insurance, endos often times are not seeing new patients. i feel like i was very lucky in finding a local endo that will see me starting in 2014!
