Hi Everyone. Got my first response from Medical Mutual. Not a denial, but a request for more info. It seems my doc's office never recorded my weight for 2004. I know it was taken, but evidently never recorded in my chart. Does anyone have any suggestions? I did have a colonoscopy in 2004 and contacted the hospital today. They wouldn't check while I was on the phone, but said they probably recorded my weight that day and if they had it they would fax it to Dr. Lane. Not sure what to do if they didn't make a record of my weight. Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

Can you think of anyone who would have taken your weight any other doctor. Your gynecolist. any clinic... Anyone. Do you have pictures of 2004 showing your weight. Medical medical sent me the same letter. They never denied but wanted more info.. Just think someone has to have you weight down Take care Barb

Hi Barb. I've been racking my brain. The colonoscopy was the only thing I had other than regular doctor visit. I did get married in 2004, so I have some wedding pictures. Pretty tubby bride. I can prove the date with a marriage certificate...think that might work? Did you find your weight somewhere or did you send pictures? Thanks, Diane

I had all my years of weight. I been a regular vistor to the doctor for some time. When did you start your journey for surgery... There has to be your weight documented on something.. Just try and think the pictures should do it... You have proof of the date.. Try that. I am glad they arnt making you do the 6 month diet. I would also ask the doctor for a note. do you have all your records from the doctors. Take Care Barb

I still have the doc that actually did my colonoscopy to check with. The letter I got today said nothing of a 6 month diet, but Dr. lane's office told me to be prepared for that. I have an appt tomorrow to begin a supervised diet...just in case.
