Julie33 · July 17, 2008

in desperate need of help. I am a cardiac patient. I had a heart attack in feb 08, and have severe medical conditions and am obese. My cardiologist wrote a letter stating it is most critical I get the lap band, My insurace is WELLCARE. I called them and they said the will cover it if it is life and death, which my cardiologist pretty much clearly states. Now. i cant find anyone to take my insurance that there isnt a one year waiting list. I wont be here in a year at the rate it is going. This is most critical. Please. help needed.

I am also filing disability, and am unable to work due to my heart condition, Microvascular Disease, Coronary Artery Disease, Hypertension, Depression, Anxiety, Bloodflow reduction to my heart, and much more.

Can anyone help me find a doctor that will take Wellcare that wont wait a year????????????????
