WORTH IT

Started out with breasts that were large for my framd but not overly so. Sailed through 20s and 30s with 34 C cups. My son died when I was 40 and that started me on a spiral of binge eating and shopping. I am now 55 and I have 38 G cup breasts that hang to my waist. Photos later. Had my first appointment on February 27th with PS. All documentation in. Insurance company has not received the info yet. Should I hound the doctors office to get the info to Healthkeepers? Does anyone else have Anthem Healthkeepers and did it take long to get approval. Also, I am so thankful for this group of women on this website. I check in here 10 times a day for all the support here.

I sure hope you get approval. This is the best surgery in the world. I am 63 so you can never be too late. I only wish I had done this 20 years ago

Thank you for your good wishes. Now that I have decided I want it tomorrow.

I will hope you get approved too. Maybe we will get approved very soon.

I hope you get approved too. That is what worries me. I am disable and have Blue Cross HMO. I am just having to switch family doctors. I am really hoping she can help me get approved.

Today I called Healthkeepers and they received my information today. Now I feel like I can start the countdown for approval. One more step taken towards my reduction. I am feeling hopeful today.

I had my surgery 12 weeks ago. Now I feel wonderful. It is the greatest gift I have ever given myself. You will not ever regret this decision. I will keep hoping for you for approval. It is a shame all the red tape we have to go through.
