I have blue shield HMO and I was denied 3x's-1st time I was denied by my physcians group,(who suggested Lindora) I appealed to Blue shield, they denied, I appealed. They sent me to review board, they denied me. I went back to my PC, depressed and heavier then ever, she in turn counseled me and monitored my diet for a month and submitted a new request, AND finally after 10 months of denials, I was approved! Don't give up, I am now 5 months out and 85lbs lighter-Life is getting BETTER everyday. Good luck, Rose
