  1. hey. i have uhc throught my parents. what ive been told i needed was a history of having a bmi over 40 for 5 years and past weight loss attempts overviewed by a dr. i have both. i also have pre diabetes and sleep apnea. the only thing im worried about is that my first year in the 5 year history i was a bmi of 33.8, but all other years i was well over 40. but at the time i was only 15 years old. how do you think they will view that? im so worried. my drs office is just about to submit my paper work for the first time. anybody have a similar experience?
