But I am Standard!! It's okay, I just asked my insurance lady at Dr. Katzen's to re-submit only for the TT so I have a better chance of getting it approved!! Deb

STILL PRAYING!!!!!!!!!!! Getting some covered by insurance is better than NONE!

THIS MAY SEEM A BIT BACKWARDS BUT I WISH I STILL HAD RASHES ... EVER SINCE I CHANGED MY FOOD INTAKE AFTER GB SURGERY, & I'M NO LONGER EATING TONS OF SUGAR, I NO LONGER GET RASHES. GOTTA COME UP WITH ANOTHER "PROBLEM" FOR PLASTIC SURGERY TO SOLVE!!!!!!!!!!!! TOO FUNNY ... NOW I WANT TO HAVE A MEDICAL PROBLEM & DON'T HAVE IT!

Right now, mine is just a small rash (believe me it was worse before surgery). But my pcp told me (before I even had surgery) to come see her with any rash, because it would help with plastics. And besides, I haven't seen her since my surgery. Who would have ever thought that I would be "excited" about going to the doctor!!!

Actually, as weird as it sounds, Ms Dianne ... If you can take a picture of any rashes you get, it will go a long way towards convincing the insurance company that you have a problem. Not so much how many rashes you have but an awful picture to prove that you have them. I know ... Every time I see my PCP, he yells down the hall as I'm leaving, "youre lookin' gorgeous, Ms Skinny" ... Who meeeeeeeee? Skinny? Those words have not been used to describe me since 1995 when I got down to 172 (for about 3 whole minutes - HAHA!) ... I'm now at 186 down from 280 & life is goooooooooood!!!!!!! God bless you ...

Helpful hint....if you have a rash I have been told....won't say by whom....but it was at a PS support group, that WD-40 will make your rash worse and look worse....for pics! Go For It!! WD-40 I haven't done it, but who knows?? Maybe??? So if your rash is going away, spray it!
