thanks for the info !
-
Dr Waldrep does not take my insurance, I could go there as a cash pay....lol
-
I read it as well,
I simply did not take it all that seriously, it was crass I agree but also very very funny...They write like my girlfriends talk. I loved the analogies..."continue drinking coffee and your breath will smell like ass"...rofl
-
I am so worried, I will never get approved...and on the day of my next denial I will have a heart attack and just fade away...leaving behind everyone I love...

Want2,
Have you tried Dr Koura's office? Dr Machado is just too pricy for me, great doc but come on... who did you see in Mexico, how did that go? Mexico may be my only option if this new doc in San Fran does not work out... I need advise.
-
Thanks DAC,
I found the problem, the docs office submitted the claim but there was vital info missing, that is why I was denied...when I last saw them my bmi was 40 and I have HBP... and to top it all off the doctors office straight up lied to me and said they have not received an answer...the insurance answered the request within 2 days... I am really frustrated at this point.

DAC,
Since you work there I have a question, if you have a bmi of 35- up and you have hypertension, is it covered? Or is there some weird rule that you need to be on 2 or more meds, or have had HBP for a certain length of time?
-
thanks kristin,
dr machado is the doc I wanted but her program fee is 2750...
-
Hi all,I'm from Sac and having a hell of a time finding a doc with no program fee..or a fee that is more manageable than 5750, 3780 and 2500... if I wanted to pay that much I might as well become a cash pay! Anyone else having this problem? Anyone been to San Fran for surgery?
-
LMAO, you sure told her....
-
maybe it will work better if you just sit on it for a while....rofl
-
Bergdorf, give me 300 dollars and I will come shake your house periodically.... lol
save your money, trust me save your money

well, there have been many weight loss "products" and there was a vibrating machine back in the 20's and what we have learned from that is that nothing, no products will help you just loss weight by standing there. All jokes aside, keep your money and take a walk or ride a bike...the human body needs activity to loss weight...diet and exercise...there is no simple cure or pill or powder and no amount of vibration will burn a signifigant amount of calories. Since we are talking about vibrating...remember sexual activity will burn 20-100 calories and that is it, so if you just lay there what do you think will happen?
My guess is not much will happen...
-
yeah it is tough but it IS my own personal plan to be naked as much as possible when I do get to goal...so plaMaytes is a good choice. lol

Hi LosingIT08,
I am sorry for the loss of your cousin. But I also know the personal hell of denial by insurance. I was denied twice last month, my doc basically said I was not fat enough....lol I had the choice to loss 90 pounds on my own or gain 13 to have the surgery. Well unknown to me I had high blood pressure so I too am waiting, and waiting some more. I believe we all get our chance... and you will too.
-
I don't live in a small town, I don't think I could because the people in large towns seem to speak their mind to fat people i.e. me. What business is it of an almost complete stranger to make comment on or critize someone else. None the less make rumor or suggest some sort of impropriety. I was ok being me, its the general public that made me hate myself, made me hate my own reflection because I was in some way not normal, imperfect, to be treated like I was some sort of objection by GOD. I don't understand what the hell gives people the right to comment so negatively as if their own life is perfect. Do people think by putting this negativety into the world makes it better??? My personal saving grace is to say F*ck em, if you have a fat ass and your happy more power to you, if you are bound and determined to fix what is in your control, do and then say f*ck em !
Aubrie, that girl is a keeper...

excellent post...great way to explain
-
wow, poor carnie...if this is not a testament to "its hard for everybody" then I don't know what is...she went from a size 28 to a size 6...I read she had a TT, breast lift and bracialplasty...wow...weight gain can happen to anyone!
-
I don't know about you guys but I am loosing my entire mind over this waiting crap. I can't do anything or call anyone I am just waiting, and waiting. I waited patiently for 1 week now this is week 2 and I am going a little crazy with anticipation.
