Should I get my own insurance?

[luv2bingo07 0]

I have been researching this site and reading alot about insurance and exclusions(which my company has), pertaining to WLS. One of the posts I read was that someone had gotten their own insurance through Mutual of Omaha and got approved. That sounds so promising, but is it the thing I should consider to avoid appealing and other hoops to jump through. I started taking growth hormone shots over a month ago and at first my insurance said no way. It was only covered for children. Well, my endo said it was very weird that the insurance called her and said no, then a few minutes later called again and said yes...what is up with that? lol I was thinking or hoping they would do the same thing for the Lap Band surgery, but then since it is an exclusion, probably not.

Thanks for any and all replies. I made the mistake and told my mom about thinking of trying again for this surgery, and she didn't like the idea and tried to talk me out of it, saying that I am just not active enough, but I am usually fairly active when off from work running errands...so not much support there. :think I am not saying another word to anybody until I get the final go ahead! darnit! LOL
