I plan on getting a cervical epidural in the next few weeks just to make sure I don't get any pain relief from that before I go into TOS surgery in a month.

My insurance does contract with UCLA but my claim got denied because I unfortunately wasted authorizations getting a brachial plexus MRI from a radiologist that doesn't know TOS and also a (according to Collins) pointless MRN. Hopefully the doctor that ordered it will help me to appeal it.
