wow! sorry to hear they are moving your app. hang in there. Do they give you a reason? I know my mom (Diane) said Dr. Edwards office is in a mess since the medicare changes last month, 60 medicare people some already with surgery dates have to be put on hold to take another test. So you wait and eat from upset and gain even more weight. Not good. Just try to remember how far you have come in the process.

Hi Amber,

WOW!!! Congrats on your Oct 16th app. Soon you will have your surgery date , that is fantastic. My mom has hit a medicare snag.She got a call from Dr. Edwards office and they told her medicare has changed the rules and she and all medicare people will have to take another phychological test that consists of 500 questions with a different Phych Dr. at a different location in Springfield. She was to get a call from the new Dr. but, we have not heard from them so we have a call into Dr. Edwards office again to find out what is going on and was told it would be 3 days before Dr. Edwards office will return the call. I am taking my mom to Springfield on oct. 13 and 14 for the lapband support group meeting at 5:30 p.m. on the 13th and other non-lapband Dr. appointments on the 14th. So hope to run into you at the support meeting.

Keep us updated. Susan

My Dr. office just call late this afternoon, New Medicare rules

Now I must take another 500 question psychological test at a different Dr. office before my paper work is submitted to medicare. Has anyone else run into this ?

I would like to know if anyone has the weigh 2 win exercise dvd and is it worth the $29.95 price? Can I get it used somewhere?

Need help! My mom has a psychlolgical evaluation next week in Springfield,Mo with Dr. Edwards staff and is freeking-out any help anyone can give us about the app. and test after would be great.
