My experience
No one is covering legs at all anymore, period! I was one of the lucky ones who got it done before they put a halt on it. But if you want legs/thighs done you will have to pay for it oput of pocket.
As far the tummy goes, appeal it! Get your surgeon or the plastic surgeon you were going to go write one as well. Document all the "problems" and rashes you have! make sure you take pictures, lots of pictures! Appeal! Of course they are going to say no, at the hope you will walk away from it and save them money, but if you have the proof and the documentation that its medically necessary then do it. If anything after the appeal, if you are denied again there will be more specific reasons on the denial. Then you can appeal that with the info they give you if you are denied on the appeal. Never give up until you have exhausted every last resource. Anything worth wanting is worth fighting for... and honey, youre worth it!

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug
"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."
