Appeal finally filed!

[Kiki1313 11]

So after being so disappointed with my insurance company denying my revision surgery, i got some much needed support from my advocate. She reassured me that we would find a way to get it approved. She also had me write a plea letter and has sent out all the information needed for appeal. I am praying that the decision is overturned and that ill be having surgery soon. The pain from this band is sometimes more than i can take and i struggle with it everyday. For now, i will try to continue to look on the bright side and know that this fight is not over yet!

@@Djmohr thank you for always being so encouraging. I see many of your posts on here and you always offer words of comfort to not only myself but others who need and appreciate it. You are wonderful!

@@Kiki1313, thank you so much for the kind words. i have learned so much from all of the folks on this site. I like to give back!

If there is one thing needed for success after WLS it is a positive attitude and a lot of encouragement from your family and friends. I think to think the folks on here are like family and they all certainly understand what we are going through.

@@Djmohr i love that about this forum. I find answers to questions i have and also find support when i most need it. I hope to make friends on here because i have cut so many ties with people i used to call friends. Cut out all the negativity in my life.

I hope it works out for you.... Have you had all the Fluid removed from your band? This is the only thing that helped me.

@@virgo66 i did have all the Fluid removed and now i dont have problems eating but i still have terrible pain at the port site and in the center of my chest. Its hard to describe the pain. I just want this band gone.

I don't blame you a bit...I know the feeling of wanting it out. I hope all turns out well for you!
