Changes in me
on July 20, 2008 3:18 pm
  Well it's been a month now and I have lost 22 pounds after surgey done 41 lbs from my highest . I feel very good. Dr Melkonian did a great job ! I am very happy with my progress so far . Only thing bumming me out right now is BCBCNC I'm thinking they have very confused folks working for them! I went to TN for a few days and come home to a letter of explanation of benefits . It say's Required prior approval not obtained weight reduction services not covered .  All I can say is wow these folks are alittle off they approved me in May . So I guess I need to call the DR's office and get them on this. My ride with BCBS NC State Helth Plan  has been a roller coster for sure. So we will see how this ride ends .

New Day

Today I went to Dr.Melkonians office and met his staff and The Doc himself. I feel they will get me through with my insurance. I am very hopeful. Dr M seemed very nice and Patti is great. It was a positive  day for me.

My Story

I was a thin child. I began to gain with my first child that was 31 yrs ago .I have thought about bypass surgery for 10 yrs now after so many failed diets.
 In Oct of 2007 I started this journey and was denied by my insurance co.Heart ache .I thought I was in appeal by found out it was never sent in. So I start again with a new surgeon with hopes that I will have a chance at a better life.
