I am fighting with my HMO.  I won't go into the long gorey details.  But,
after being on a heavy gluten diet for 2 months I am almost incapacitated.

My doctor called today and said that my HMO (Harris Methodist) in Texas will
not cover the biopsy.  Supposedly I do not fit the computer's list of
criteria!

I have submitted a protest with facts about my personal battle and quotes I
found on the internet about celiac disease not always fitting a specific
criteria.  Do any of you have any other ideas?
