20 hours agoMy employer uses Cigna and with them it’s $1,300. They keep asking what my pain level is and I keep telling them none. When I explain to them why I’m not getting the surgery yet they seemed absolutely baffled for some reason. They tried to get me to sign up for a medical credit card offering zero APR. I told them does zero APR mean also $0 a month, because that’s about how much I can afford. And again they acted like not moving mountains and stirring the oceans was a me thing. Absolutely fucking wild.
My understanding of this is that it is caused partly by bone conduction. It might be possible that closing your ears by pressing frimly on your “tragus” or on the “mastoid process” could reduce the associated effects. The mastoid process is where the jaw meets the ear.
