The "GIRLS" are moving north again!
LOL! It was a fight to get it approved. I've had back issues for years, but the insurance company wasn't convinced that I had done everything I could to alleviate the pain non surgically. So, I went to a spine doctor, who did xrays and a mri and discovered that I have a broken back joint that is pinching the nerves running down my legs. So the spine doctor and my plastic surgeon joined forces. Two days later I had an approval for surgery!
I hate insurance companies but I have been really lucky with ours. They approved my RNY on the first request and this one pretty quick too. Next Summer is going to be when I feel the pain in the pocketbook because insurance will not cover the remainder of the work I have to have done. So we will be paying out of pocket for the tummy tuck, inner and outer thigh lift and back/butt surgeries. I will be taking the entire Summer semester off of school to recover and just doing online classes instead.
