  1. Thanks so much for all the great answers! My insurance has approved me already... What time frame are you looking at once your Ins Co has approved you? I have my first visit with the Dr Hoehn on the 14th.... ??
  2. Me too! Was just approved yesterday! I am nervous and excited. I am so tired of being FAT, gaining and losing weight, no being able to wear cute clothes, constant injuries from trying to exercise! I am to the point I think I have to do it! I am 40 and this is it... do it now or be fat the rest of my life! Is your surgey scheduled yet? Do you know how long after your approved?
  3. Sorry to hear insurance is being difficult. I just don't know what to think:confused: I have just been approved for the band, I am nervous, excited and have tons of questions; How long from the time your approved until you actually have surgery? Whats the hardest part? I want to change jobs put now I can't per LAP BAND, Ideas? Can I rush the process? How long until you feel normal? Worse the Gallbladder surgery or the same? Mortality rates per this Dr. H? Anyway all and any replies would be GREAT! I live in Shawnee KS.
