In I tripped over a phone cord that was loose, in front of my supervisor. They sent me to their Drs. And my back has never been the same. They sent me to their workers comp drs. Who released me to go back to work. I never had a problem before this and now nothing but problems. For 11 years, I've worked the midnight shift at the call center. I began falling asleep, both driving, the computer and on the phone. The last night I worked I asked to be put on a day shift because it was getting so bad. She refused. My dr. Took me out of work and sent me to a sleep specialist. I have severe sleep apnea. That dr. Said I could work *IF*I took a cab, 45miles each way, to work everyday. The problem is that with Delta, the dr. That takes you out has to be the one to release you, and he refused. He wanted me to see a psychiatrist due to my job. This was Oct 12. Aetna disagreed, so they cut off all of my pay, including disability and my insurance, on me and my children. Being on high blood pressure pills and hormones, amoung others, I went without. I also have skin cancer. That Dr says I must get them removed immediately. We have been living off credit cards, which are now maxed out. We have not one penny of income. The Dr. Appealed, but was still denied. He feels that there is no way I'm able to return yet. The last time I saw him, Sept 15 he said maybe in March. I knew I couldn't live this way anymore, so I tried to commit suicide. Aetna nor Delta are Drs. And have no business disagreeing with a decision that was made from a DR. At least I should have disablity pay and insurance for me and my children. I've tried to appeal again, but they said they will deny it, no matter what. Then they blamed it on the Dr. Not getting them the info requested, and I have all of it, it was sent in as requested. All these years they took my premium and now are useless to me. I haven't been fired b/c they know they would be in the wrong b/c a Dr. Took me out. I even offered to go to their dr. They refused. I've spoken to several attorneys, and have been told I have a case, but unless they can make at least $100K, they don't want the job. I am about to lose my house adn have racked up $20k in hospital bills and $30K in credit cards. I know something can be done, but what?
