Guest guest Posted June 27, 2001 Report Share Posted June 27, 2001 HI ALL, JUST a little worry over the very large and influential BC/BS denying across the board on investigational reasons. I'm afraid all the companies will jump on the bandwagon now, including and especially Medicare/ and or Medical. The Gov't is always looking for excuses not to pay. I think wherever the " investigational status originated, whether it was set my the gov't or The dr's it needs to be changed pronto, like next week. Deficate or get off the pot on this already!!! My best friend had her bpd/ds done in 1987, and she has lived a happy and thin life and healthy every since. She had to watch it on meats as her breath would exude the smell, so she became mostly a vegatarian and also takes a high protein shake for breakfast. She eats all that she likes, and is so beautiful and thin. She said she would do it over even if she had to do it every 5 years. Her quality of life is profoundly different, socially, monitarilly, and emotionally and health wise. I wish the ds Doctors would call an emergency conference and get this going with lawyers. Lets get it out of investigational now!!! my 2 cents. love ya Maril __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
