Went to speak to my primary yesterday and he is onboard with me getting the lapband. I'm going to Mt. Sinai on Monday for their info. seminar. I am so excited.
you are very close to me! I oftentimes take my son to the playground in front of Schwab. I work at a school going south on California. I am going to contact Sinai to see what the out of pocket is, if my medicaid denies me. Im glad I found this forum since I have so many questions.
Im in Chicago and am thinking of getting banded. I have read that Mt.Sinai now offers the service, which would be great for me since I live two blocks from there. I have a medical card *** and I believe I have to change that if I was looking into the surgery. I have a BMI of 40+ and hope that I qualify for the surgery.
