Yes!!!! Awesome!!! We're at disney world right now and that's the best thing I've heard all day 😊😍

I haven't gotten approval yet. They don't do it until it's like surgery time. I have just over a month to go until the earliest I can know. Dm80 let us know, PLEASE 😊

Just got my results and it's Mild sleep Apnea as well. So funny that we are in the same boat. I am a woman, 218 pounds today, 5'5''. I have to stay at 216 until surgery. I'm in Asheville, NC. I have to be in the program for three months so the earliest they can even think about scheduling surgery is 10/29. The doctor thinks I'll be lucky to get it done by the end of the year. I just learned that a lot of people who don't get approved by insurance go to Mexico and I think I will do that if I have to. With plane tickets it ends up being about $4k all together. Paying out of pocket at my hospital would be like $25k.

Following! I am in the same boat. Just did my sleep test last night and don’t have results yet.

Hi! Anyone have Cigna and have trouble getting approved with just mild sleep apnea (35 BMI)?
I see “obstructive sleep apnea “ is listed as one comorbidity so I’m hoping a mild case still qualifies me?
I’m hoping for gastric sleeve approval.
thank you
