Guest guest Posted August 13, 2000 Report Share Posted August 13, 2000 HELLO ALL, I AM A NEW VISITER TO YOU-ALL. MY NAME IS DORY. I AM SO TOTALLY FRUSTRATED, I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO TURN. I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING INFORMATION ON THE ''MGB'' FOR ABOUT 1 1/2 YEARS AND HAVE BEEN INTRODUCED TO DR. RUTLEDGE THROUGH A PREVIOUS PATIENT. MY HUSBAND IS IN THE MILITARY AND WE ARE COVERED BY THE TRICARE HEALTH INS. SYSTEM. I AM TOLD, I AM 20 LBS UNDER-WEIGHT, FOR THEM TO PAY FOR IT. I'M 240 LBS WITH A BMI OF 39. ALTHOUGH, I HAVE BEEN DEPRESSED FOR SEVERAL YEARS BECAUSE OF MY WEIGHT, I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GAIN THE 20 LBS. TO APEESE MY INS CO. STRANGELY, WITH LITTLE RESULTS. ''IS THERE AN EASIER WAY?'' WE'RE CURSED WITH HAVING TO GET REFFERALS, BEFORE WE CAN EVEN SPEAK TO A SURGEON. 'BUT' WE CANT GET REFFERED UNLESS WE MEET '''THEIR REQUIREMENTS'''. SO NOW WHAT?? IF ANYONE KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT TRICARE, PLEASE----- FILL ME IN. I AM AT THE END OF MY 'ROPE' AND KNOW NOT WHERE TO TURN. I SO BADLY WANT A CHANCE AT ''LIFE''. I AM VERY LOST, AND IN NEED OF A GUIDING STAR. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, RESPOND EVEN IF YOU ONLY HAVE THE SMALLEST BIT OF INFORMATION, ''OR INSPIRATION!'' I THANK YOU WHO RESPOND, FOR HELP IN SAVING MY LIFE. A NEW FRIEND--- DORY [ IE..
