aussiemalcolm 0 Posted April 8, 2011 G'Day All Well found out today that my Dr's office hasn't sent in my stuff to insurance as they don't have the required paperwork for a Dr's supervised 6 months of diet and exercise, they never said anything about this before today and I have paid for all the tests and so on to be done expecting to be done later this month from what the Dr had said on my first consult. My band to me has slipped but the woman on the phone from Dr's office says that the report says band is OK, yet I have a copy of all my adjustments and upper GI work on CD and looked at the films myself (I know I'm no Dr but after 12 years of adjustments I can read them ) and the pouch and band have moved since june last year 1 month post op new band. I am so upset and frustrated with all the stuff I have been through these past 2 years health wise this was the nail in the coffin for me I think. It's so upsetting to be told one thing by the office staff one day then the week later another says a thing totally the opposite. Regards Malcolm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AutumnLily 77 Posted April 8, 2011 ahhh I hate to hear of the hoops insurance puts people through! Did you discuss the information insurance sent to you with your doctor? I hope you can get this worked out and will be back on the road to getting your sleeve soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedyCheeks 0 Posted April 8, 2011 They should consider your banded time a supervised "diet plan", after all isn't why we got the blasted things!? Twelve years is a long time to have a band; I had mine for 4 yr 7 months and the damage was bad even without a slip. Good luck to you, you'll be in my prayers.

iegal 460 Posted April 8, 2011 Get another sugeons opinion. If you really think that you have a slipped band, then you need help now...not like a newbie to WLS who needs the supervised diet. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
