Let your surgeon's office work their magic. They have been doing this for many, many patients and they know how to word things in your favor. They KNOW the insurance companies. I truly believe it will all work out for you.

I believe they can also do a peer-to-peer review, where your surgeon talks to your insurance company. Some insurances just do this, in hopes you will change your mind. I know how excited you are to get this ball rolling, but often we have to sit back and wait it out. Good luck with everything.

I was denied three times before I got approval. My husband was denied 4 times. The insurance company doesn't want to pay out right away. They're going to try to find every little reason to fight you. Ask your surgeon to do a peer-to-peer , write a letter describing how the way it affects you and keep pushing.

When I was getting the runaround from my insurance company I pushed through the we don't talk to the insurance barrier and refused to get off the phone until I could speak somebody who could give me actual information. It helped me find out exactly why they were denying me and what ways I could get around that. Don't give up you will make it eventually. It took me 18 months from start to finish and my husband 22 months. He gets sleeved on Wednesday and I will be 4 months out on the 5th.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
