So I am sort of disheartened. I went and got a copy of my plan and yea my insurance plan through bcbs does in fact exclude bariatric surgery. So now i'm trying to figure out all the options. Right now, i'm trying to either a. get a job at the hospital b/c the hospital does have insurance to cover and if i get on at that particular hospital i don't have to do the pre-op diet for Dr. Mailapur.

 

the other option is getting a part time job with insurance that will cover it. I sent out mass resumes last night. I am not thrilled about working at the hospital. I worked in the healthcare industry for a few years and i pretty much decided against it. However having this surgery is more important so I would much rather bite that bullet and get the surgery.

 

oh and also, my husband and i have to drive 5 hours tomorrow for a family thing that we got coralled(sp?) into going. I really really really do not want to sit in the dadgum car for that long. And on top of that when we get there, there is all this WALKING we'll have to do. Well umm I still have a huge hole in my leg and I'm supposed to stay off of it as much as possible. So i'll be hauled up in the cabin for a couple days probably. So i'm just really not happy about all of this.

 

I am also missing my best friend's birthday for this family thing. So she is mad at me. She won't say she is. But i know it hurts her feelings.

 

Maybe when i come back monday someone will have called back for a job. OR maybe i'll buy a lotto ticket and hit the jack pot and can pay for the procedure out of pocket.

 

Sorry for the rant
