Has anyone's medical history has been sent to their employer for wls approval?.

I have Aetna and was denied, despite >40 pages, including psych eval, LOMN, weight history, diet history, voluminous medical records, and family history, being submitted initially. I composed a 20 page appeal letter, added 19 pages of data and bibliography and submitted to Aetna. Aetna sat on it for 9 days, then sent it to my employer, to the HR benefits person. I am upset that I had no choice in this being sent to my employer. I was notified after the fact. I talked with my boss last night, and she was appalled, then she said my career is RUINED. I would have taken a second mortgage before I would have people in this company have access to personal information. This is a large company, yet as gossipy as they come. When I had surgery for cancer, the approval process was long, but the information did not go to my employer. Why this humilation, other than "because they can"? Does anyone think this can possibly mean I'll be approved????
