changing

I do understand.I am just getting aggravated with not having my phone calls returned.I had to go to office to take information to them.I think all they have done was submitted a pre determination letter.

I called yesterday and realized the insurance company did not have any of my information.So I got a fax number for the correct department and gave it to the surgeons office to refax info.I am thinking about getting information from my orthopedic doctor to support my need for the surgery.I am also thinking of sending pictures of myself at the gym to support the fact that I know the band is not a quick fix and that I have to do my part.I also plan to type up a letter with all of my diagnosis and my family medical history to support my need for the surgery.I wanted to know if anyone else have went this route.I am waiting on my letter from my GYN doctor who has monitoed my weight and prescribed Adipex and vitamin B-12 shots in the past for me.I just want to be prepared with all the necessary and helpful paperwork.So with that being said, what do you think?

Congrats.keep us posted.

I support whatever decsions you make.If you have done your research and feel comfortable go ahead.

I plan to check it out.Thanks

Welcome Carla.I think you have made a really good choice to come here.I am waiting on an approval for the band.If that does not work I will go to Mexico.I have received a lot of support on this site.Stay encouraged.I am sure that someone else shares the same concerns as you.

I am sorry to hear that.I called just to see if Aetna had received any paperwork on me today.Unfortunately they have not.So I called my surgeon office to inform them to re fax.I hope they did because they did not return my call.

Just stay positive.It will all come together.

I am sitting here at work next to my friend that had the surgery.She has done awesome with the surgery.She looks and feel great.I am waiting for an approval.When you get your fill I am sure it will help.You just have to reach your sweet spot is what i have been told.hang in there.

Thanks for your post.Congrats and keep up the work.
