  1. Hi, I'm new to this Aldo, and have Medicare. I met with Surgeon, Dietician, at the same day, and surgeon was great and understanding. She recommended the gastric bypass surgery. I'm not sure if Medicare has approved it yet, since I just went a few days ago. They referred me to get a sleep study test, ekg, Gi test, gallbladder test or something, and an appointed on July 3rd for psych I think. But Medicare wanted 3 previous Dr failed diets and it's kinda hard because I'm also in a wheelchair due to spinal bifida and can't exercise to lose weight so there isn't a history of previous diets failed so I don't know what's going to happen yet or if I'll be approved. I will be just absolutely crushed if I'm not approved because I've been so excited!!! I have hypertension, borderline diabetic, extremely obsese, high cholesterol and such...
