Whre you able to pick up your baby afterwards? I have a 13 month old and that is basically my biggest concern. I am in the propess of getting all the paper work in with the doc. I am in the buffalo NY area.
anyone from the buffalo ny area that is starting the banding process. Just started and waiting for the doctors office to send the online course which hopefully is this week. Just in the beginning stages of the lapband process. Don't want to go it alone want to talk to someone of is in my shoes.
i spoke to my insurance company and said that the lap band procedure is covered under my plan. all i need to do is pay a $250. COPAY AND the office visits which are $20.00. they also said that all the need is approval from the doctor and do all there tests and once i have they have approval from the doc office they schedule the sugery 3 days afterwards. Sounds to simple and i hope it is. i
I just spoke with my GP and he gave me the go ahead to pursue the lap band surgery. So now I have to put in the referral form in to the lapband place that I am going to. How long does it take before you get schedule for your surgery? Week, months, years? I know there are procedures but no one has ever given me a time frame. Very curious to start this new scary adventure
