Well I am super pissed about the lab stuff. My doctor ordered my thyroid, testosterone levels, and FSH and LH levels to be checked based on symptoms of fatigue when she made the order. She said that she has to put fatigue on so it would be approved my medical insurance. I originally got them done because I've been depressed, tired, and very moody all the time. My periods were also pretty irregular which lead me to believe I have a hormonal imbalance. I asked for progesterone and estrogen to get checked later on, but because she didn't order it I might have had to pay for it, so I cancelled that order. Does anyone know if fatigue will be approved by AHCCCS insurance to cover the costs of hormone tests? After I got my labs done I called my insurance and they said they usually only cover for symptoms of anemia. I was like WTF! I might have to pay for these!? Can doctors make an order for that but not know if you will have to pay for it or not? I don't have the money for that, I don't know why they wouldn't tell me a price for it and still go through with the procedure. I assumed when my doctor made the order that she knew if it would be covered by my insurance. I needed to post this to ease my paranoia...
