Anyone approved with one comorbidity when insurance required two?

Just curious if this has ever happened to any of you whose insurance company requires two comorbities if your bmi is at least 35 but under 40. I have bcbs of illinois, PPO. I have one which is high blood pressure but but they require two. If my blood work comes back fine and my sleep study comes back fine I'm wondering if I have any chance or should I just give up. Should I just continue with psych eval and nutrition class and have my doctor submit and see what happens? I wonder if they would pay for those things if I didn't get approved. Grasping at straws here!
