  1. Thanks for the info!!!!
  2. I am also looking to use Carillion in Radford. My first appointment is 7/21. I went to the 1st seminar this week. I'm excited, but not sure I'll be approved. I also use Anthem, but my BMI is 37.8. How's it going so far for you?

  4. I attended a seminar this week and am very excited!! I am scheduled for my first doctor's visit on 7/21. However, my BMI is 37.8 and the nurse I spoke to was not very positive about my being approved. I have had NAFLD (Fatty Liver Disease), but lost about 45 lbs and my levels went back to normal. I have since gained 20 lbs back, but have not been retested. The nurse is not sure if NAFLD will qualify me anyway. I also have partial disability through the military for ankle, knee, and back pain, but no one has ever outright stated that it is arthritis. I don't really have any other medical problems, so I'm seriously worried that I won't be approved. Any advice? Frustrated!!!! :confused2:
