Getting sooooooo frustrated!!



Recommended Posts

I finally finish my long 6 month diet jump through those super big hoops in all hopes that my journey will soon be over. After leaving numerous messages with the bariatric coordinator, I call her today and she answers the phone!! Wow!! I say what do we need to do to get this stuff sent to Bc and she said well and was flustered and fumbling and I started to worry. She said we still need documentation from 2004 about your weight, I did not go to the doc in 2004. She said you better start digging or find some 2003 and 2002. Great idea, but considering I was on a power Atkins diet I was not obese in those years to qualify. I am thinking I will just pack on some pounds for the next 6 months and then submit the paperwork in Jan 09. I am not sure if we should send it all of excluding the one year or just wait another 5 months. My mom keeps telling me, "I dont know how you go through all this and don't feel like giving up". Right now I do feel like I am tired mentally from all this crap the doctors and ins put us through.... Any ecouragement or advice is always appreciated. Tamara

No giving up, that's what the insurance wants, keep fighting. Your health is worth it.

I am sorry they are trying to screw you over.

I am wishing you lots of luck.

Hi, I to have B/c and just finished my 6 months supervised support. They submitted for approval 3 weeks ago and they did. Why are they digging if you were supervised?

It almost sounds as if the coordinator didn't quite have everything together in front of her, so she said what she could think of to put you off...

Don't give up! Keep checking with her.
