Topic: Insurance
Do you mean to tell me that the Surgeons who do these surguries so not accept Insurance? I am heartbroken. How can people afford it then? I know someone who had it in 2002 and it was paid by Ins and she also had a resulting tummy tuck paid by Ins. That really breaks my heart to learn that.

Topic: RE: INSURANCE HELP
Insurance can really suck. The only thing I can think of is keep on the insurance company. Maybe send them documentation you can get from your doctor's office and send it in yourself. I know a lot of people have problems with their insurance not wanting to cover any kind of weight loss help. Just keep pushing. I think there is a forum on here though that deals with insurance. Check them out and see what they have to say. Good luck and I hope all goes well for you.
Topic: Hi all...it's been a while
Hi all...it has been quite a while since I have been on the OH board. Just wanted to come back and say hi and hopefully get the support that I need again since I have fallen off the wagon head first and am having a very hard time getting back up and on track. A few cir****tances have made things difficult (stress from teenagers, some surgeries, etc...). When I first started on this board it was VERY helpful and people didn't candy coat anything. But some were very rude and I do hope that has all changed....Hello to all....again. Can't wait to chat with all the successful losers and those who will become successful losers.

Been crazy busy since June 7th at work that is absorbing all my time. Then I go to the gym, then a quick dinner and bed!! I spend the weekends running all the errands and getting everything else done. I hope it slows down soon. I want my life back!
Topic: RE: Supportive Primary care
I don't know any pcp's up your way. Mine is in Hanover, MD and he, very willingly, wrote a fantastic letter of medical necessity for me. It's really what got me the approval I think.
