found out something today. If you get into my predicament make sure you GO TO REHAB OR IOP!!!! it is a requirement for the 1st and 2nd class medicals. so far i've done everything backasswards and it's costing me huge. IF I'd of gone to rehab or IOP first, like right off the bat, still hungover or a day or two later then my medical insurance would have covered it. But since i've been sober for 11+ months now........yeah, no. negative. the $ comes out of my pocket and i'm up to $9500 spent so far including my CE-500 SIC sign off last weekend and that total will be climbing at least another 4300-4500 in the next week or so for IOP. IOP is Intensive Out Patient or something like that. basically rehab for people who have to work. 3 or 4 nights a week, depending on where you go @ approximately $270 bucks a night for 4 or 5 weeks (depending on the 3 or 4 nights a week plan)
