Arg! Go Figure!

Ever since "the fall", my left heel has been bothering me and it's simply gotten worse, not better.  Fast forward to February (almost ten months later!) when I went to visit my foot doctor for the second time:

Dr. Ebeling:  Requests an MRI on my left heel.
Worker's Comp:   The MRI is not authorized.  I need to complete conservative care first which is PT.
Dr. Ebeling:  Okays PT.
Margo:  Makes PT appointment and notifies worker's comp of dates and times.
Workers Comp:  They need the doctor's order/PT request and will review it for authorization for PT.

What?  Dr. Ebeling requested an MRI which they denied!  And now they need to authorize what they told me I needed to do?  Go figure . . . I can't!
