Wonder if I'll have to do that too. Sounds like it will be a great start to your weight loss. Let us know how it goes.

I can go to the seminar without a referral. I'm sure my PCM won't give me a referral without seeing me first cause I have never been to the doc here, I just changed my Tricare over this week. I'm going to a seminar this coming week.

No cancellations so far. :tongue2: I called Tricare today and they couldn't really tell me anything I didn't already know. I called the Bariactric center here on base (Fort Bragg) and they said I can go to a seminar and support group meeting before my appointment, so that makes me feel better, at least I won't feel like I'm not doing anything. :thumbup:

Hey Linda, it's Kelly. Just popping in to see how you are doing. It sounds like it is a frustrating process, I guess I'll soon find out. I have decided to go ahead and get the ball rolling here too and put ttc on the backburner. I just can't take being this big anymore. :confused: It looks like we are at the exactly same place (weight wise), so we can go through this together. :thumbup: Oh, I have an appointment with my PCM June 24, but I'm gonna bug them till they move it up. Also, Trey and I talked about it again and he is totally for me having the surgery. :wub:

Thanks. I was able to go to the clinic with my Tricare PCM change paperwork and make an appointment. The first available one they had was June 24 though :confused:. I'm hoping if I call everyday, they will have some cancellations.

I have Tricare Prime and I am nervous about getting approved. I just changed my PCM, so now I need to get an appointment to go see my new PCM. Do I just go in and tell them I want Lap Band Surgery or do I need to take medical records in with me?
