Joni Dear

Found some more info on the Aetna Gods, might be useful down the road. Keep in mind, one lady appealed FIVE times before Aetna finally approved her. Not trying to jinx ya, just looking out for ya, I want you prepared to fight until they give in no matter how long it takes! Are you with me???

Oh god, 5 times. I have done every damned thing they told me to do and my BMI is 52.4. Those *******s had better approve this damned surgery! I will fight them. That is for damned sure. Love you, Joni

Listen to me! YOUR BMI is MUC higher than this woman's! YOUR health overall I am sure is MUCH worse than this woman's! I can understand them not approving her with a BMI of 38 that fluctuates down to 35, but your case is different. I do feel they will approve you so stay POSITIVE and keep that in mind! In case they do not, which I REFUSE to believe, just know you have options, and bigger fish to fry to get approval! Love, Sandy
