I'm scared to death of being denied!! Sent from my SM-N900R4 using the BariatricPal App

I'm in the process of going thru everything now too.. I have had a few appts.. And I have more.. I'm so scared of not getting approved Sent from my SM-N900R4 using the BariatricPal App

I am in the process right now and I'm scared.. I have hypertension but not on max doses of my two meds.. But I've been on them for almost 7 yrs.. But bcbs of NC states must be on max doses.. I have no other comorbidities... I do have horrible osteoarthritis which is a comorbidity but I had my knees replaced last year at 44.. I've asked my orthopedic Dr to write a letter stating rhetoric advantage of losing significant weight for my new knees to last.. Right now I'm at 38.7 bmi.. They stated they would submit the first weight the day of the orientation and the second weight the day of surgery.. I'm like 7 lbs from 40 bmi and then I wouldn't need any comorbidity.. I'm so scared I'll go through all this for nothing but when I went to orientation they said that if the pa did not feel you had a chance at approval she would not let you attend the Class..but the coordinator told me that without being on max doses of BP meds bcbs will deny.. But they are getting my records from my ortho too.. And of course I suffer from fibro which losing weight would help that pain so much Sent from my SM-N900R4 using the BariatricPal App
