I have a low BMI of 33. However, I have diabetes, sleep apnea, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I'm on United Healthcare Choice Plus. I was turned down before I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea. What do you think my chances of getting approved now? Should I try again?:cry_smile:

WOW...That's amazing!

This is all very encouraging! Thanks!

I went to a seminar given by Dr. Michel Stephan. He is in Mesquite, but is coming to Greenville one day a week. Who was your surgeon?

Thanks for the info. I hope it goes that fast for me. My BMI is 33, but I have some co-morbidity's. Several women at work have had gastric bypass since this was added to our insurance. I heard that one was banded and it didn't take long.

Anyone have United Healthcare? If so, what hoops did they make you jump through for approval?

Hello. I'm new here too.:biggrin2: I'm in the VERY early stage of this. Just went to a seminar and looking to get approved. My BMI is just under 35 but I have other health problems that may get me approved. Just found this forum and looking for more info from people that have had it done
