My PCP will not agree to my WLS surgery

sorry for hijacking the thread, susie lol I do hope everything works out with you changing PCPs. I am sure you will be able to find someone from the suggestions here on the board. Good Luck and don't give up!

Hijack Away! LOL. Thank you for your kind words La 2nyc. You are so cute in your blog! From your description, I believe we could be physionomically quite similar. Yes - I too love having big boobs, however I'm afraid they will reduce to 2 deflated balloons - hence I may need assistance picking them up from the floor, and would rather cut the excess out so they can look round again. Well, that'll be FFAAAAARRRRR out in the future. Right now my focus is trying to regain my life back - learn how to live healthily - and learn to love myself by taking care of my temple (which is my body). I want to be a good role model to my future kids - so they may skip the "fat gene", and be healthy kids. wow - I'm rambling now... heehee, well I just wanted to say thanks to everyone again. PS - I'm not kidding about the PICNIC!!! It would be a nice way to say Thank You - personally. Ciao Bella (^_^) susie

Hi Susie- I meant that boob comment directly towards Meagan. She said in her post that she wanted breast reduction surgery possibly after surgery.

Please let me know how it goes Susie!!!! I am excited for all of the advice you've gotten....and I must admit, I've gotten in regards to the greast reduction. Thanky everyone!!!

I have the same insurance as you do.All you have to do is go to empireblue.com the website thats on the back of your card and just look for a physician and find a primary care doctor get the ones close to your home and just call the office and ask if the doctor is familiar with bariatric surgery.Actually you can find any doctor that you like.I found all my doctors on this website and so far they are all pretty good and sensitive to your issues.My pcp is great.I usually had my letters ready as for instance i got a letter of medical nessecity typed up for her she read it i asked if she agreed with it she can sign it so she did and stamped it with her name and liscence number and she was straight with everything she actually said she wish all her patients would do this lol .Your pcp is an ********Ome ppl dont realize what its like to be overweight.Im going thru the process of getting approved by empire bcbs ppo right now the ppl are actually very nice keep in touch and i will let you know how everything went with my approval i hear they are a bunch of tough *******s! lol Good luck though if u need any help just hit me up

I have a super supportive PCP in Bklyn if your interested....................
