Hello everyone My name is Nicole and I am in the beginning stages of the process . I have already gotten recommendations for surgery from my primary Dr and scheduled to see the dietitian on 10/26/10 . I currently haveUnited Health Care -- Badger Care Plus for insurance and they are extremely secretive about what qualifications I need to meet for approval . They will only tell the Dr and Surgeon . Can one one tell me what to expect from here ? My BMI is 43 I current suffer with high blood pressure, sleep apnea , a hiatal hernia ,and asthma and mitoprolap heart vale (might have spelled it wrong) ... What do you do think my chance are of getting approved by insurance . Looking forward to the support and information . "I have been this PERSON for 34 yrs , Is the world READY for the NEW ME? I'M DOING ME!!!!":thumbup::thumbup:
