I got APPROVED

findingme · 05-09-2008, 06:46 AM

I am so happy! I called my insurance company yesterday thinking they would tell me the new date that I would have info (they had requested more info) and they told me I was approved. The letter is on its way to the Dr and then I can set up my apt. I am so HAPPY!
I am actually meeting with a different surgeon today (was already scheduled). He did my friends boob job and she said he is a lot cheaper then anyone where we are located (he is an hour away). I am going to talk to him about gettin my breast lifted and under my arms done. The surgeon I went to said he could do all 3 together but I would have a more difficult recovery (would have to depend on others to help me longer) but I am willing. My friend is off all summer and she said she would help while dh is at work. My mom and dad live next door and my bil and sil live two houses away.
I will keep you posted

Hi Shannon, I had my PS on 4/21 and I'm still recovering. I had a tummy tuck and thigh lift. Best of luck to you.

Congrats on getting approved. I have a quick question. How did you get your insurance company to approve a breast lift and arm work? I was under the impression that insurance companies don't cover these types of surgeries unless you can prove you have some sort of medical need for it.

I am curious as to the answer to this as well.
