  1. Thanks for the info. I appreciate it!
  2. I got approved for surgery. Waiting on a few particulars before setting an actual date. Went and applied for a passport card yesterday. The person I've talked to through email is named Cindy. However, I've seen the name Lora in many related posts for Dr. Kelly. Not sure what all that means. Anyone that has used his services please any advice would be greatly appreciated. In all likelyhod I'll have it done mid July. Still a little nervouse but excited. Thank you
  3. Thank you. Good luck to you as we'll. I am waiting to see what insurance says. I guess I want to see what other options there are should the insurance come back with a negative response. Kind of the mental health of knowing its not over even if the company says it is.
  4. Hello to all, I am in the waiting process right now to see if insurance can help with the cost of the surgery in the states. However, I am really considering the idea of going to Mexico to have it done. My wife is VERY skeptical of doing this. I just look at the difference in cost here and there. If insurance pays all I can do it for around 4,000. If they pay for the "hiatal hernia" which I'm not a 100% I have it is around 8,000. If they dont pitch in at all it is a little over 10,000. My wife is just worried about after care and safety. I don't blame her but I have fought my weight all my life. At one time I was 330 and made it down to 202. For a while I could keep it around 230 and that was ok but over the last few years I am creeping back up to now over 260 and I just cant fight anymore the way that I did when I coached and taught PE. Since I moved into administration I am not as active. Just looking for some perspective and advice I guess. Thanks JW PS I posted this on another forum as well. Just looking for plenty of info.
