  1. Linaka, Thanks for responding. Did you have any co-morbidities if you don't mind sharing?
  2. My Anthem Covered California will not cover my surgery because my BMI is too low, so I have been contacting various doctors (4 so far have responded) their cash prices. The lap band prices are $15k give or take a couple of 100 and for sleeve have been from $18.5k to $20K. These doctors were all on the first page of my google search if you want an idea of who I contacted. I'm working my way inland to see if there is any significant price difference. If anybody has already collected this information let know.
