Some Hope for Insurance "Denied"....



Recommended Posts

I have been going back and forth with my insurance after my "denial" in August....after giving up for a little while and deciding to go South of the Border and "self pay".....I put down deposits, bought airline tickets and was prepared to do WHATEVER I had to do!!....

Then...it hit me....I AM SICK.....I have had a heart attack (at 30yrs due to Migraine medication), I have high blood pressure, and horrible pitting edema and was being looked at for possible congestive heart failure...I am 35 years old.....

I decided I WOULD NOT let my insurance NOT help me....I called....dealt with a wonderful woman at my insurance company directly....had all 86 pages of my med hx resubmitted and ......I WAS APPROVED.....IN LESS THAN A DAY!!!

So...in short.....don't give up...fight your insurance...you pay for it....you deserve it!!!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
