  1. Those pics were amazing. What a transformation. Thanks for being "brave" enough to post them. I would never be able to do that, very body shy. Question: Do you know if Medicare covers such surgery. I have tried to research it but get little info. Congrats on doing so well after LB. If you don't mind me asking, how old are you and how long did you battle your weight? I am pre-band and would be ecstatic if I could do as well as you.
  2. I am sorry, where do u live again?
  3. I get more confused about Medicare the more I read. I believe it is their conspiracy for peole to just give up......tee-hee-hee.
  4. DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER DR GROSSBARD. He is a rude man and even my doc said stay away from him. The almighty dollar is his main concern,not patients. I am investigating Dr. Murr in Tampa. I have heard only good about him and u can read patient testimonials on his website. He is with TGH.
  5. I was so happy to read the information you had to offer. I would love to receive any further links and info you may have. I want to use Dr. Murr in Tampa. I have been trying to get info on time frame, such as from seminar to surgery and what all is required. I never seem to be able to navigate the impossible with Medicare. I have only had Medicare since June of last year and they never cease to amaze me with all their confusing rules and regulations.
