  1. New to the site. Looking for some answers.

    HungryMel posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Hello, i am new to this site. I am in the middle of my Pre-op. In January I will have all the Dr apts completed, from there I can then get a surgery date. I have a few questions and i am hoping I can get some answers here. My insurance is HIP Prime HMO, has anyone ever been denied or has issues with covering the cost of the surgery? Has anyone NOT quit smoking and lied about it? Why would my Dr say he can do one insecion instead of all 6? I was told about 7 days recovery and back to work w/no heavy lifting etc, anyone disagree with that?
