Old Question -- New Frustration
Yeah, I have been on an off these boards for YEARS. I went to a seminar at Cenntenial and even started the 6 month process of seeing my doctor monthly only to find out that they no longer accept Amerigroup. That was back in 2010. Let's just say that I gave up.
Being heavy. It's like living in a prison. I am looked down on by every one...even more so because I am a woman. What makes it worse is that my job didn't offer insurance. I was laid off after 8 years due to take over in March and was able to get back on Medicaid only to find that while they cover WLS not a single doctor in the state will accept it.
It's enough to make you tear your hair out. I want it so bad. I am getting older now (33) and my body is breaking down. It's getting more and more painful to live day to day.
I keep hoping that if I wait long enough, something will change, a doctor/surgery center will finally get their heads out of their asses and do something for those of us who are unfortunate enough to be stuck with state insurance. I am willing to jump through any hoop they require if they'd only save my life.
Where is my pro bono surgeon angel when I need him?
