  1. I have 3 months of supervised nutrition appointments. I want the sleeve, but my insurance only covers the band and bypass. I am going to go for the bypass. I just have to talk to my surgeon because he doesn't like to do bypasses. I just don't want a surgeon who is doing something that makes him miserable.

    Anyone go through Tricare Prime?

    Hello, I am new here as well. I made my decision and found my surgeon. I wanted the bypass, then the sleeve, and then was reminded Tricare doesn't cover the sleeve. He wants me to do the Band. I don't want to do the band I all. I've decided to go back to the bypass, but my surgeon has me terrified. I have yet to talk with him so see if he will even do the bypass. If not, I guess I have to start everything all over again. I just need to have clearance from psychology, get an EGD done and do 3 months of nutrition visits. I will have to change surgeons if he is really against bypass. I won't feel comfortable with an unhappy surgeon doing my surgery. I'm feeling overwhelmed at the moment because I thought I had it all figured out. Now i'm kind of a mess. Why did some of you decide on the bypass over the sleeve and/or lapband? I'm just curious. I feel like going back to my original decisions has me all freaked out for some reason. When I made the original and absolute decision, I felt like a weight had been lifted.
