OP, I'm so sorry.

At least with a diagnoses, insurance might actually help cover some surgery.

I won't diminish it at all. I have a botched rhinoplasty and breathing issues...I grind at night and it's destroyed my teeth. It looks like shit, I'm in such a way that any "correction" will probably require a monster nose, and most surgeons I've asked for help have either said no or said not without harvesting rib cartilage....

Having shitty bone structure has multiple dimensions of health and pain ramifications.

Just another femcel burden, your body guarantees you a life of sadness and probably a life of physical/medical stress on top of it.

vcardthrow1 thank you so much for your compassion and wise words! I'm actively looking in to insurance coverage but it takes forever to actually get approved. 😭

vcardthrow1, I know you've been actively searching for a cure to your predicament and you probably already know this, but have you visited an ENT doctor? Perhaps they could prescribe a septoplasty or even a rhinoplasty to resolve your condition? I've heard of many normal women with nasal issues that have a septoplasty covered by their health insurance. Isn't it a running joke that celebrities explain that they had a rhinoplasty because of their "deviated septum"? Dual septoplasty/rhinoplasty surgeries are quite common.

I'm not sure how doctors or an insurance would react to the fact that your issues were caused by a rhinoplasty, but there has to be some way for you to get help!!!

The fact that you have bruxism means your breathing issue is really serious and could be a sleep disorder!

Here's what I suggest in order to get (possible) insurance assistance:

Visit an ENT and explain that your breathing issue causes poor sleep. The ENT should refer you to visit a sleep specialist. You should be prescribed a sleep study. If the sleep study comes back indicating you have UARS or sleep apnea then you have a diagnosable condition that your health insurance likely covers. Sleep disorders like sleep apnea and UARS are only solved with a CPAP machine or nasal/jaw surgery.

Doctors prescribe CPAP machines first because they're not invasive, but if the patient doesn't see any improvement that's when they submit a claim to insurance for surgery.

Just another femcel burden, your body guarantees you a life of sadness and probably a life of physical/medical stress on top of it.

😭😭😭 I'm so fucking tired of everything. Life is just one bad surprise after another. It's like an exponential graph that only shoots downwards. Every day I feel listless, especially since coronavirus began.

Hoping you find a solution 🙏
