My First Consult

Hi everyone!
Well my PCP has referred me to a plastic surgeon, my appointment is December 15th. The rashes I've been getting under my hanging belly are just not responding to the ointments he's prescribing. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I have no doubt this is going to be a long journey, I fully anticipate my insurance coming back with the old stable weight for 6 months thing. At the end of that journey, MAYBE they'll approve me. At best I'd get a panni approval and the cost to upgrade to a full TT might be more than I can concieve. If that is the case, I'd consider Dr. Sauceda. There are just so many unknowns right now.

Do you guys have any advice for that first visit? Are there things I should do or questions I should ask that will help with the insurance submittal? Any advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated!
