  1. Doctor’s MA just called to tell me that insurance BCBS of TX denied my PA because they are requiring 6 dietician visits , I’ve completed 3 so far. Doctors office has been slow with everything to begin with started this process in May my deductible and Max OOP has been met 3 more dietician visits mean my plan starts over in January new deductible and Max OOP to meet so my surgery will no longer be covered at 100% as expected [emoji25][emoji22][emoji22][emoji22] how did the office not know that 6 visits where required vs 3? I’m so upset right now, needed to vent [emoji25]

  3. Congrats on your surgery date! I’m hoping I can have mines in November too. If I may ask, when did you finish your pre-ops and how long did approval take ? Timeline basically , if you don’t mind
  4. You're Definitely not alone! Best of lucky to you [emoji171]
  5. Yup! From my family only my mom and husband know. Dad, his family, stepmom and her family are too judgmental in life for me to care about their opinions to begin with so yeah, keeping it from them is the best choice in my life. Thankfully I have a handful of very supportive friends who back me up 100% as well, so family support is not really missed ??
