A few months ago i was approved for my plastics...tummy tuck and breast lift with implants and had a surgery date of feb. 8. Well on jan 1st this year my insurance changed and i have to go through the whole process again, and they want 6 months of documented rashes and a letter saying im not going to lose any more weight. Well, i dont have the rash documents becuz i self treat them so im prolly not going to get approved. If i dont get a ins approval by next week, my surgery will be cancelled. I am very happy i lost over 100 lbs and dont want to sound selfish or greedy, but im so sad and ive been crying for 2 days becuz i had the approval already and it was taken from me. I just wanted to vent and update all of you on whats going on. ill let you know ASAP if im approved or denied as soon as i know. Thanks for listening. Love u all kim

Kim, Sorry to hear you're going through all of this. Did you change plans on your insurance, or did their requirements change as of 1/1? The reason I ask is because if you did not change your policy & you wer already approved, you shouldn't have to go through the whole approval process again. If you changed insurance companies or policies , then I'd understand. Hopefully, this is all a misunderstanding & you'll be all set for your surgery next month. Keep us posted, & I'll keep you in my prayers. Tammy

Hi Kim, I'm sorry! Don't you love how one insurance won't take what another approved? I have a co-worker whose husband was on a heart transplant list and the entire bargaining unit didn't change insurance companies specifically because if they had he would have had to start all over again with getting qualified to be put on a list and once approved, been put back to the bottom. So, in perspective, waiting a possible additional 6 months isn't the end of the world, but I very much understand your frustration, anger, and unhappiness. I hope it goes as smoothly as possible at this point. Dawn
