Don't give up. BC denied me twice and only authorized surgery after being contacted by a lawyer. Authorization was granted 12/23 but, too late for me to request time from work. Insurance companies are crafty...So, a new year and surprise to me my employer signed with a new insurance- Blue Shield. Another auth. request...and happily BS authorized first time.
About the lawer, my surgeon referred me to a lawer hired through Allergen (makers of the Lap band). This may be an option for you. I can certainly give you their contact number....
Good luck and dont give up, that 's exactly what the insurance companies want you to do.

Hello,
My surgery is Monday too. Scheduled for 9:45 arrival time 7:30. Today it's a diet of Clear liquids & non-fat milk. I also have to down a 10oz bottle of Magnesium citrate...uggh. Very excited about surgery and what is to follow. I have been waiting for this for close to a year. Insurance took me for a ride, they really know how to work it, but that's another story.
I have Zumba in my DVD and am reading Runner's World's 'Run your Butt Off.' I am soo ready for this.

Hello,
Not sure if this is the correct place for my post, so please forgive me. My surgery is Monday @ 9:45....I am so excited. Today I have been instructed to have only clear fluids and Magnesium citrate for cleaning out.
Last night I enjoyed a last meal from my favorite Greek restaurant...yummy
Wish me luck fellow banders..
