  5. The doctors office called me today to tell me the IRB still hasn't approved plication. I am going on and having the band Monday.
  6. well as you know ive been worried about extra cost for plication. Tricare wouldn't cover any complications f I had plication since its not FDA approved ~~ guess the good lord made my decision. I only need to lose 5o-6o lbs I feel like I can do it with the band!!
  7. I start my pre op diet MONDAY

  8. Lap band with plication (yes I decided to do plication). I begin my detox diet Monday (22) and surgery is the 29 th.....I am so darn excited!!!
  9. ok ya"ll I need advise. My band date is April 26. My question is I need to lose 75 lbs. I really want the band with plication. My Doctor charges a 500 program fee and 800 extra for plication. 1300 is a little steep for me right now with son in college. My husband is afraid I will have additional charges also for the hospital and anesthesia for the plication part. My question is should I just go with the band?? Sound off and thanks in advance.

  18. Hey Friends. I had to reschedule my surgery for the end of April. My son is a senior in college and he is being prsented an award. I was afraid that if something happened I may have to miss his award presentation .

  19. YayMy doctors office called me today and told me the hospital is allowing them to start doing plications again on April 25, so I rescheduled my surgery to April 29 because I really want the plication part
  20. 2 weeks from tomorrow

  21. Nervous about not being able to get plication. My insurance will cover surgery but not the PROGRAM FEE. I asked what the program fee covers and was told for facebook support group, one fill and reduced fee for dietician $35 per visit. Thoughts?? Comments??
