I had Gastric Bypass August 5, 2011. I've lost over 125 pounds. But, I have soooo much excess skin. I have become so depressed, I stay in my house, and to myself like I have always done. I feel just as "fat" as if never even had this surgery. My insurance paid for the entire bypass. They tell me they will not cover the cost of the skin removal because they consider it to be "cosmetic". Does anyone reading this know a doctor that will do the surgery and take payments? I have also heard there are some doctors who will do the skin removal and word it in a way that insurance will cover it..... Anyone???
