I don't understand how a case that is not pending puts you into an exclusion category???

I just checked Axiomed's website. They list any previous or current litigation related to spine. Was your litigation related specifically to your spine?
Yes, it was for the T and C spine, not even the L spine. They wouldn't cover the L spine, because I was in a second accident. They said the second accident caused the L spine and since my idiot dr's didn't do an L spine MRI until after the second accident, there wasn't much too argue.

It sucks, I don't even care about the money, I just want to be better. Sad thing is, the little bit of money I got, just barely paid my out of pocket costs. No reprucussions for ruining someone's life.
