Written reason is odd...... first they comment that band over bypass is experimental (not a proven procedure).... then they specifically state that my BMI is too low 37.5 ... however they go on to stte that they will also consider 35 with co morbidities, they also stated the application for approval did not contain 5 years of weight history.... Well, it contained almost 8 years!
I am still diabetic (on two types of injections and oral meds) still cholestrerol problems (back on simistatin) and still HBP (back on lisopril)....\
That said, the surgeon's office immediately prepared a cover letter stating all of the above.
SoI'm gathering info about attorneys just in case.
