Book of Pain: My NP Appointment and The Other Party's Insurance Lies

 I saw the nurse practioner this morning about my pain. She says I probably need an x-ray taken to figure out what is really wrong. When she asked me to bend over to try touching my toes, I couldn't. I couldn't even bend side to side. My back was in bad shape. I had to pay out-of-pocket despite the other driver's insurance saying they would cover the costs. The agent texted me and emailed me today and told me to provide my doctor's office with the claim # and his name and phone number, so he could accept all the costs, but when I went to the receptionist's desk, the lady told me that they do not file that way and that I would have to pay upfront and figure out the expenses with the insurance provider. I was livid. More so at the other driver's insurance rep because he apparently lied. I don't dare go get the x-ray now because I do not want to incur more expenses. I have health insurance but that is not the damn point. I will wait for Monday to reach the other insurance rep and see what my options are. In the meantime, my back pain is an 8. Probably due to the added stress of having to figure out my options. My mental health and the feels are through the damn roof. I have no idea what to do. I just want to rest. My NP prescribed two meds today; one for pain (meloxican, 15 mg) the other is a muscle relaxer (methocarbamol, 750 mg). I can't think straight. I am starting to not be able to sleep at night.
