As you may or may not remember, I was formerly denied genetic testing that would show if I had the genetic markers that would show if I’m a good candidate for trials. Since I’m on a different insurance plan, I asked if we could try and get approval again. Cigna said no, maybe Providence would say yes, since their own doctor fought so hard for it last year.

They said yes!

I’m not sure how much my portion of it will cost. I don’t really care, to be honest. I’ll afford it. There is a lot of exciting research being done right now, some promising results, and I’d love to be a data point among them.

I’m looking forward to having more information. To BEING information. I hope the tests allow me to participate. I hope I can be useful.

I hope this diagnosis is good for SOMETHING.
