Would my insurance cover liposuction to help my back? (photo)

Asked By:Cececakess in Murrieta, CA

I had gall bladder removal surgery November 2011 and I was injured in November 2013. I fell down a flight if stairs and injured my back. I've been trying to work out but I am still very limited. I plan on settling my workmans comp and starting my own treatments. I know weight loss will help dramatically but it's also harder because I do not have a gall bladder to help digest properly. Which also doesn't help with weight loss. I've gained 20lbs since my injury.
