I got approved

Just got a call from my doc.. they approved my plastics. I just got the number for the ps so I get to call him today.. I will keep you all informed.

gooooooooooo carla goooooooo carla which insurance do you have ? Heather

Blue shield of california HMO.

That is sooo great. I am happy for you...jealous but happy.

Wow..good for you! Must be nice!! Doubt my insurance would pay for it,unless its medically necessary,had a hard enough time approving my wls!!! Have a question,though,when are you scheduled for it? My Dr. said they won't do any plastics until you are 18 months out. Since that is how long it is supposed to be when you reach your goal.... Anyway am happy for you!!

Because I am in my idea weight range and have such bad psoriaisis they need to do it to keep it from going under the panni fold. I am not having that many problems in truth but I have worked hard making it look bad.. i have pics of the areas and have gone to my derm doc and regular doc regualarly with complaints.. My insurance would not normally cover this, but I started early getting my ducks in a row. It can be done when you get to your IDWR.. depends on the ps you go to..

Go Carla - go Carla Of course you know I'm sick as a parrot with jealousy, but SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pleased for you. You said it before - you're our guinea pig. We're gonna be watching how it goes for you, then learn from your wisdom and hindsight hee hee. here's goodbye to all the redundant skin - you are no longer required or needed. So long, adios, chao baby

Hi Carla, Congatulations on getting approved. That is awesome. Was wondering if you could send me some info on everything you had to do to get approved. I have the same ins. as you and I want to have at least my tummy area done. Thanks my email is [email protected]
