Awesome :) I feel like its me all excited here

I work for insurance and you have to use methods to treat it ... The dr has to state you tried conservative measures before most ins will pay for it, sucks ... So my advice is taking lots of pictures and unfortunately let it get worse...

I love Tricare South. They are easy to work with. My Bariatric Coordinator has the easiest time with them out of all insurances.

After being done with children, I plan on submitting for skin reconstruction, as well.
