I was self pay for my surgery (I wasn't heavy enough for long enough....grrrr) and I thought I saw a post a while back about fills. Someone said even though insurance didn't cover the surgery, they were covering her fills. Is this happening with anyone? Any ideas on how I can get my insurance to spring for the fills?

Unfortunately, it's not a matter of "getting" them to pay for fills. Either they cover it or they don't. Because it's not considered a medical necessity and denied the surgery itself, you're pretty much at their mercy.

If I were you, I'd contact them and find out what their stance is and if there is any way they will cover it.

Good luck.
