Hey There! New Here.
I have beeen researching this like crazy, I know that this is what I want to do, it's like a dream that people are being cured. I want to be cured.
I am 21 and diabetic. I am currently on Humalog, Lantus and Metformin. 1000 MG of Metformin, 50 units of Humalog before each meal and 75 of Lantus at night. With all this I am fasting and still at 200 in the ams. Endro says that I won't make it for another 5 years living this way.
I just saw my PCP and asked her for a referral to a surgeon that can do this procedure. I currently have CIGNA.
I know I have a lot of steps to go, but I was wondering what the steps are. When I called CIGNA they flat out told me that there was no way that they would cover this, when my husband called 1 day later, they said that they would cover it if it was a neccessity....so I am confused, excited, angry and happy.
I am waiting for the referral PCP says it takes a week, I would really like to know what will happen, does anyone have cigna? Has anyone heard this before? Are there people out there that have CIGNA and have had this procedure?
:cool2:
