Happy ,lumpy, ehh , what eva!! Thursday
OK Its been a while since I posted any thing, been really busy. I had a Holy Sh&T moment that I thought was real but found out it wasn't
I got on the scale and it read 248 lbs. I yelled Holy Sh&t so loud my bf came running and thought that something was wrong. But silly me ........ I had the scale on the bathroom rug so that skewed the reading.. Our scale is digital and has a memory. After I placed it on the hard floor it read like it always does. 269 lbs and BMI 41.9.
even though the scale read the same on the hard floor, I had to laugh,and say I can't wait until that is true.
I am still waiting for response from the insurance company. Dr's office says they only do things in 30 increments and my surgery was scheduled at least 90 days in advance. I am still gathering tools for my appeal and working with the California Commission on Insurance for the exclusion.
I will keep things update as to the progress.
Right now I am still wrestling with ****tails of med for various co morbidity's. Dr changed my Bp meds and told me to monitor bp at home. This morning it was 159/83 which is high. Normal and desirable for me is 110/70. Oh well no wonder i woke up with a headache.
Have a happy Thursday. I am still lumpy, lol.
have an ehh and what eva!! attitude and its Thursday.
Ciao

never settle for less than you deserve and you deserve only the best. 
Hi stranga!
LTNT. Sorry for your almost-wow moment! Hopefully it will become reality soon. Keep up the fight and you will see your scale move. I can't imagine though the frustration of fighting your insurance company. If you want to talk, feel free to call me.
We should get together soon.
~hugs~

"The difference between try and triumph is just a little umph!"
my scale is stupid too. it's always in the same spot but i never can get the same measurement. I'm thinking of saving for a reguar doctors scale...
Hope your insurance woes work out.

I understand about stupid scales. I am a research fanatic. I of course do not expect to have an easy time. How ever, If I can find a loop hole I am going to use it. I am even looking in to the legalality of being denied coverage for a medically necessity. If they deny medically necessary treatment they sentencing me to death
and as far as I know I have commited no crime
that carries the death sentence. May be an extreem comparison but we will see.

thanks for the well wishes. I see your in Charles Town WVA. My mother was born and raised in WVA, point pleasant and charleston. I hope I do get approved without too much of a fight.
I just got a call from the drs office with a schedule for pre op work ups for the next two months.
I am working with the California Commission on Insurance to see if I can get an Independent Medical review. I was told that I should go ahead mail them everything even if I have not gotten the letter of denial yet. This way they can begin working on the case. I just need to gather a bit more information before I mail it off.
I will keep every one posted.
Hugs from baltimore

Lori,
I lived in Maryland for 10 years and found a nice house out here in Charles Town not too far from Charles Town races & Slots last year in June. Charleston is like 5 1/2 hours away from here and very country. I am a city girl and I sometimes wonder how did I let my husband convince me to move out here. LOL But I do love it in this area. I just have all my friends in NY & MD.. Makes me sad sometimes.
I am glad that you are on top of things!!
Good luck and I can't wait to read your updates!
