Finally

It has been 11 months and 5 appeals and i finally have been approved by tricare and I have a date of June 28th. I really didnt think it was meant to be.

Tricare had denied me for every little thing. first it was my co-morbidities, I had sleep apnea and gallstones (short for their colstectomy or however they spell it). That alone was not enough for them. and even though I was 104 pounds over they take 5 pounds off for clothes so they denied me because i was only 99 lbs over and not 100. Then when i had my gallbladder removed they denied me because one of my co-morbidities they say was now gone. So finally on appeal 5 I called them and asked what exactly do i need to do. I had to gain 2 yes 2 pounds. so i had to do it and now i have a date :smile2: .

So i can tell any one who has been denied that if you want it bad enough then dont give up.
