Hello my name is Holly and my BMI is 36.8 I have Cigna OAP,I HAVE GERD,ARTHRITIS,HIGH TRIGLYESERIDES,SEVERE BACKPAIN,AND BORDERLINE DIABETIC:cursing: I was wondering if you've heard of anyone getting the band done with a low Bmi like mine and info would be helpful.

Hello my name is Holly and i'm not banded yet but im geting all the test done and my doctor will be sending in all my paper work in about 2 months.My BMI is 36.8 and I have very high triglyeserides about 600:cursing:and my good cholestrol is at 35 I also have Gerd,back pain,Artheritis,and borderline diabetic.So im hoping and praying my ins will cover it.Do you know of anyone that has been approved with a low BMI AS MINE WITH THESE CO-MORBID CONDITIONS?I have Cigna OAP.

So have you had your surgery yet?

I HAVE A bmi of 36.8 and have Cigna oap ins I have almost all my tests done and my doctor will be sending in all my paper work in about 2 months for approval.I have gerd and high triglyserides about 600:cursing: and im also on fluid pills my body is filled with fluids and its hard for me to walk so im hoping and praying that my Ins will approve me for this surgery.
