Guest guest Posted June 19, 1999 Report Share Posted June 19, 1999 Rhonda, Hi, I'm very new to this list too and I, also, live in Florida. I have been thinking of this surgery for months and have just been reading all the posts to see if it's my last resort also. I guess, my biggest fear, is that I will be rejected by the insurance company (I have CAC United Health Care) and thus, haven't done anything but ask questions of support lists. I'm in Orlando, where are you? Charmane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 19, 1999 Report Share Posted June 19, 1999 Okay gang, I have to share with you all this pictures.. talk about an inspiration and desire to push harder... I was going to wear this to a wedding today but no way! This is without stretching the elastic waist out.. and to think, last year at this time it was tight... This is a great feeling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 19, 1999 Report Share Posted June 19, 1999 Hello Charmane I'm Kathy from Alaska (surgery date June 1) and I also have United Health Care. Unfortunately the only state that I have heard that United likely to deny is Florida. Everyone else using United seems to get approved quickly. I know I did. It is worth the battle with them to try and get this covered. Hang in there!

Guest guest Posted June 19, 1999 Report Share Posted June 19, 1999 Congrats! I can't wait until I can do this! Today I went down my first size. Less than three weeks since surgery! I started at a size 26 Lee Jeans and today my old 24's hanging in my closet fit (Yippee!!!) Today 26's went into the drawer for remembrance!!!! They are the only thing I will keep from this size because they are the largest that I have ever wore.

Guest guest Posted June 20, 1999 Report Share Posted June 20, 1999 Rhonda-- I have cousins in Cordova, where we used to go out at Christmas time and chop down a fresh tree from one of their fields. It used to be all country. Not any more. My folks live in midtown on North Parkway, just across the street from the zoo and College. My kids love to go visit because my dad's grandparents pass gets all of us in for free. Katy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 21, 1999 Report Share Posted June 21, 1999 I agree with this...it is nice to get your primary physician to support you though. Speeds up the approval process. However, there are always other primary care physicians.... >From: Kaleva@... >Reply-To: MiniGastricBypassonelist >To: MiniGastricBypassonelist >Subject: Re: New In VA >Date: Tue, 22 Jun 1999 00:33:05 EDT > >From: Kaleva@... > >Never accept the opinion of a family practitioner on a matter concerning >surgery.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 1999 Report Share Posted June 21, 1999 Never accept the opinion of a family practitioner on a matter concerning surgery. You need a couple of opinions, maybe three: 2 from surgeons and one from an ob-gyn. dave from Michigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
