If you are trying to get insurance to cover it, make sure you stress that the reason you are having it done is for PAIN! You can also use the 'cancer' route as well on top of it, and state you have a family history of it. Make sure you mention that you've had it since high school, and it's always effected you. Tell the doc that you can't lay down on your stomach, and that it hurts when your wife/GF presses up against you, as well as other people when they bump into you. DO NOT mention you have ever used gear. I'd avoid stating you use most supplements outside of stuff like fish oil and multi vitamins, and basic stuff. Try not to sound like a gym rat, but make sure you mention that you go to the gym to keep your weight and health in check. Just ask the MD right off the bat if they accept your insurance, if not, look for another one.....unless you want to just pay it out of pocket for one you have high intentions of doing the procedure.
