Interesting to hear this because I was just recently denied because Aetna said I had to have the 6 months of documentation. I've gotten frustrated and said the heck with it. I've already done 9 months of Weight Watchers and only lost 20 lbs., done Curves. Nothing is helping.

Sorry to hear about your hastles, but I've got the same dilema. I went to Weight Watchers for over 9 months, and my Dr. knew about it, but I did not see him for 6 continuous months or see a nutritionist so they are denying me my surgery. I also went to Curves for 1 year. I'm so frustrated that right now I've said the heck with it. I've submitted documentation 3 times to them and still am denied. I sure hope you have better luck with Aetna than I did.:thumbup:

What an interesting story. I am also scheduled to have surgery by Dr. Behsania. Right now it is tentatively set up for May 23 if the insurance approval is done in time. I am excited but nervous. I know I can do it, but it's just scary. I am looking forward to getting the weight off and hopefully ending these horrible migraines I get and lowering the cholesterol.

Which doctor in Port Huron did your surgery? I am currently scheduled for May 23rd, but it depends on insurance approval. I have everything done now, just waiting on that. It's scheduled with Dr. Boeshani. How did you like their facility and any problems there?
