gyno surgery

[joe bigboy]

in 2 weeks i will be going in for gyno surgery on the left side, i had the right one done about 5 years ago and i've had some lingering gyno on the left side for years now and since i have a new insurance plan that covers everything i figured i may as well have it done now, i hear all these claims of ppl saying that you will be out of training for a long period of time, with my last one i had done i was out for just about 10 days, my doc said as soon as the stitches come out i can get back in the gym, provided there's no infection or complications, i just hope that this one goes as well as the other one did cause i had very little pain from it, i just thought i'd let yall know

Good luck. How much does that run you or your insurance per nip?

[joe bigboy]

thanks, when i had the other one done it was a little over $5,000 total, by the time everyone that was in the O.R. got their cut, lol.... i had pretty good insurance back then so i only had to pay around $600, with the insurance i now have through my work all my medical shit is payed for 100% so i figured i better get it done while i can..

how did you get insurance to cover it ?

[Topher]

what insurance do you have?

[joe bigboy]

any surgery done by a general surgen is not cosmetic so it's listed as painful gynocomastia, i have blue cross

[Topher]

How do you get it listed as painful gynecomastia? Maybe i too can scam health care

[joe bigboy]

well i went to my medical doc and told him i had this lump that was causing me alot of pain, he said it was gynocomastia, i acted like i didn't know what it was, so he referred me to a surgen, i went to him and he told me that the only way to get rid of it was to surgically remove it

The key is to lie to the doctor. Tell him that you're in constant pain...also tell him that the appearance is depressing you, and that you feel like killing yourself since you can't even take your shirt off in summer. Basically, you have to convince the doc that the gyno is making your life miserable in every way.

Ah, its so simple. My previous doc told me my fat was really gyno and it will go away with excerise. Well its been a while i have gotten in better shape, though i am still a mess. Now that my doc has passed away (while running, ironic that he died the way he told me to get healthier) i might try an used my new forigen doctor to my advantage. Thanks for the usefull info, i'm glad i started posting here, now to see if anthem will pay for it.

How bad are the scars?

No scars here, but my insurance did not pay one cent! They said it was only cosmetic, pain or no pain. They suck! It's the insurance through my employer. later....c
