I got some good news and some bad today. The doctors office called to let me know that my insurance will not cover ANYTHING!
This was crushing at first- but there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel! My husband went to negotiate with HR at work and it looks like we will be able to switch from our EPO to a PPO, which should cover about 90%.
Also, my mom has stepped up to the plate- she said she would cover whatever insurance does not... now I'm back to waiting! Additionally, I got to find out from the ladies at my docs office what exactly is needed for approval- I have everything they require! Doctors records showing 6 mo of diet and exercise, co-morbities, 5 years (try 15!) of obesity... Lets hope they'll fix his insurance soon... there are other problems besides this, so it might happen...
So, even though I have a setback, things look pretty hopeful.
Anyhoo, keep those warm thoughts and prayers coming!
