Hi everyone!  I am back on, couldn't log in with my old username for some reason so I have a new one now  :)

 

Anyway, Just wanted to let you know where I am now in my journey. 

If any of you remember, I called Diana about 6 months after my referral was sent in and it was lost.  That was fine, I sent another and they put me back on the list.  So, I called last week to see where I was, and it was lost AGAIN!  So I had to get it sent again after thinking I was on the list for 3 years!!!!  So frustrating!  Anyway, she told me that they were getting to the people that were referred in 2008/2009, so it will still be a while yet  :(

I was diagnosed with PCOS last year and having a heck of a time with it.  I go to the gym 4-5 days a week, eat clean and not a budge on the scale.  I don't eat sugar, white flour, and do the rest of the stuff "I should do", but nothing....

 

Anyone ever get funding from Blue Cross to go out of province?  I don't have any money to put down, but really need this done!  I am taking Metformin for Insulin Resistance now, and seem to be going downhill instead of uphill by doing all the "right things".

 

Thanks for the rant!

Hi there. Just wondering what number are you calling to check on your referral?

I emailed Diana Lawlor at Capital Health.

I tried the insurance route, they will not cover it since the procedure is offered in our province and they are not concerned about the wait time.

I have heard of them losing referrals here but I imagine there are lots of them and they are filed there somewheres.

Good luck on getting seen in the next few years, it is a long road.

I went to Mexico to have mine done. It is the answer for weight loss.
