My insurance would have paid for it too in the future but I would be the one sliced and diced again 6 months from now.
BTW I am not altogether confident that my issues were gallbladder. At the time I thought I was having pancreatitis as I went from a normal fasting glucose of 80, to a staggering 145 the day of the pain, to 136 the following day, and back to normal 80. I don;t think a GB attack causes spiked glucose.
Regardless, I'm getting the slimy thing out.
