Hello guys ,
I went to my visit at advanced surgeons in Valhalla few weeks ago . My BMI was 37 and no comorbidity , but the doc sent me to a sleep test which I will be doing in couples weeks , hopefully I can get approval -
Any advice on surgeons on Westchester area ?

Most programs and insurance require a BMI of 40 or over or 35 and a comorbidity like diabetes or another weight related condition. Your back issues might be considered a comorbidity.

Yes , everything come out normal !!

your BMI is over 35!
Do you have high blood pressure? Cholesterol? Diabetes?
if you live in usa it will depend on your insurance provider but by any medical standards you have class 2 obesity and definitely qualify!
Thank you so much for answering me
Yes I do live in the US
No . I don’t have , but I do have artrites and neck lower back problems .
I will keep posting my journey ..
Thanks !!
