  1. At the hospital for back pain
  2. They said im covered but need pre authorization but not sure what that means
  3. Not for the faint of heart Hi I haven't even been to my seminar but I will on the 12 of this month. I currently weight 357 pounds bmi about 57 or more I am currently taking anxiety pills, I had been complaining about my back to my doctor for a couple of months lately I've been getting stuck (my back) and it hurts so bad that it hurts to get out of bed or even shower correctly, not to mention reach my lady parts. As a result I'm getting rashes under my belly where the fat hangs ice attached a picture so u have an idea of how the rash looks I cant even carry my 12 m daughters My question is do I even have a shot of being approved.
  4. Would like some advice. I have made the appointment for the seminar in New Jersey I currently have Medicaid United healthcare community plan my current weight is 350 Lbs bmi of about 57. Suffer from anxiety. I'm nervous that once I start the process it will happen soon. My doctor is 100 percent behind the whole bariatric surgery. I'm just nervous what if some thing goes wrong. Also if any one in nj got accepted can u tell me how long did it take for u ? Fro. The day u saw ur surgeon to the day you jad surgery.
