I am so glad you are feeling better. Keep walking, I had that gas for two weeks but walking always helped me.

This is how I worked things, they work for you. You are the boss. Keep calling them, everyday and a couple times a day. You have to be a fight sometimes. I had to fight with my insurance till I talked to everyone at BCBS of Maryland. Fight and fight like mad, they work for you.

Also you might want to check out a couple of the medical credit plans like CareCredit. I have no experience with them but I have seen lots of posts on OH about them.
Topic: RE: Air/Gas in my chest + vomiting
Just wanted to update everyone.... Well, I'm not sure what was going on yesterday, but today I'm feeling much better. I went to the hospital for x-rays and they all came out fine. I'm not feeling any pain so we'll just have to see how things go. Keep me lifted up in prayer and I really appreciate everyone responses and concern. Once again thank you all and God bless.

I'm starting to feel guilty for not having any problems ecxept having a headache in the hospital..I have heard the nurse say that the gas they put into you pressing on the inside trying to get out feels like one is having a heart attack..I hope you feel better soon

Topic: RE: i need help
I had sort of the same thing -- I have medicare, insurance is Wellcare. No one took my insurance. I finally found Dr. Rehnke in St. Petersburg (I live in Orlando area) and had my surgery on June 29, 2010. Just hang in there. What I did was found every surgeon in the state that was close to me, and emailing me until one came around and said -- yes, they too my insurance.
So hang in there.
So hang in there.
Topic: Getting Frustrated
As I mentioned before I've have had a difficult time getting a call back from the pre-determination dept. at my doctor's office. I finally spoke with Odalys on Tuesday and she assured me that my file was sent to my ins. co. for approval. I thought "cool, I'm on my way", well today I got a return call from my ins. co. Anthem, Bariatric Dept. that they have not received anything from my doctor.
Where do I turn now???
