im young but i feel like i could have problems in the future as well if not already. High blood pressure runs in the family. :/

I am a 21yrs old and I have been struggling with my weight since I was in elementary. Since I was young enough to take medication for adhd I have. And in the 5th grade my mom took me off the medication. I was very skinny up until then. That summer I gained at least 50lbs. About 4 years ago I lost 90 lbs, but I did it in the worst way possible. I was 220lbs. I gained most of that back, of coarse. I am now 211 and I am thinking about getting the surgery done. I am not sure if my age has an effect on this or not. I really wish it didn't but I'm not sure. I have a bmi of 37.2 but no blood pressure or diabetes that I know of. I'm not sure when the last time I got checked was. I am under a health insurance called Unitedhealth care. Does anyone know if they cover this surgery, and if they do what the exceptions have to be in order for them to cover it? Please help me!
