Why wouldn't they cover it. They we following up everything from your surgery to make sure you weren't deficient in anything.

Same here but I managed to make it work. First couple of days for me was tuff then it got easier.

The 24 hour urine is rarely done. They now have a spot check creatinine clearance with a small sample. I used to have to do the 24 hour urine every 3 month and have not done that for at least 8 years. If you dislike the 25 hour ask doc about the spot check.
