Hey Kiki, I was told because I wasn't at 40 bmi for at least two years and didn't have any valid comorbidities. I did the sleep study but was considered mild apnea, not enough to qualify. My bmi hovered at like 39.5 or something silly like that.
The folks at obesitylaw.com are totally awesome and helped with my appeals (had to do two appeals) and the best part is allergan footed that bill!
I had my pre-op appointment today my 7 day liquid fest starts tomorrow. Cinco de Mayo can't come soon enough!!!
Good luck Kiki and everyone else.
