Sorry to hear about the injury, are you ok? And that's good to hear your repairs are working and it's getting better.

They're never fast. I remember when my dad was on it awhile back. Took weeks for it to be processed. Hopefully yours gets taken care of so you can get better soon!

What a cluster f*** that is. That really does suck brother. I'd be raising hell with the company if I were you, especially their medical insurance company too.
