Back in highschool I broke my nose by kneeing myself in the face (interesting story in itself) and never went to the doctor after. Long story short almost 10 years later I had gotten used to hardly being able to breathe through my nose and figured...what if I could breathe normally, so I finally scheduled the surgery to fix it
When I arrived at the appointment the doctor told me my insurance would not cover the surgery unless I tried to fix the problem with medication (some nasal spray) first. He said it wouldn't fix the problem, but if I wanted insurance to cover the surgery I would have to spend $10 on the medicine that I wouldn't use to prove that I had tried to fix the problem in the first place.
End of the day, no big deal it is $10 but it is still annoying. Anyone else have a similar situation where you had to waste some money?
