The nurse from my insurance called me today. She said I should talk to a surgeon and get the ball rolling. I would have to proove that the first surgery had complications and that I have comorbidities. The BMI is at a state where I would be someone considered for surgery but my job only approves one WLS per person. She said maybe they would since its a different insurance. I'd have to do the whole 6 month thing nutritionist, psych eval, the whole nine. Because of the prelim behavioral eval she transferred me to get set up with a life coach/therapist. They are supposed to be calling me on my bday. I come in to work today and see that I got an email yesterday from FitRx its a treatment place that I wanted to go to. They specialize in addictions and have different centers for treatment. This was a different person than the one I was emailing/talking to in January. She said she was checking in and "I wanted to reach out to you and re-open the door." I told her thanks but I wasn't able to afford it and let her know that I had tried to apply for Care Credit and wasn't approved. She asked me how much I would be able to pay and that she could try to get me a scholarship. One problem...She can't find my info from last time which is a little weird since she was able to email me. Asking for my info again. Not sure which to pursue...
