Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 - CONGRATULATIONS AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!! And thanks so much for sharing with us! You and I have written back and forth a couple of times, early in the summer, you replied to my email after visiting with Dr. Gomez for the first time! It's so good to hear that you are doing so well! I hit a little snag in my journey though, still haven't had surgery. Finally submitted the request to my insurance (Cigna HMO) and they denied the first request, so I am appealing, the appeal should go out in this weeks mail. No one was surprised they denied it but it's frustrating. I have sleep apnea, pulmonary hypertension and a BMI of 52 so it really should have been approved. I sure hope it's approved on this appeal, I'm anxious to have this surgery! So, I pray and wait and pray some more! Thanks again for sharing your tremendous success! And again, Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
