Initial consult slowly approaching...

Mar 30, 2011

I am ready for my initial consult with Dr. Sudan.  I was concerned I would have to go through an appeal because I want to have DS and my BMI is 44/45.  Reading yesterday online it dawned on me that I have a documented history and current prescription for Mobic.  So, hopefully my years of chronic pain and having to take NSAIDs will have a silver lining.  If this one issue gets me approved then all I have dealt with through the years was worth it.  And good for plea for DS, but bad for me is that WLS will not resolve the current back, knee, hip, and foot pain.  Hopefully it will help some but I was told in 1990 when I crushed my foot that it would continue to get worse.  Well, for now it has given me a glimmer of hope that my DS will get approved the 1st go round.
