Kaiser So Calif - What's the process to get approved?
I left Kaiser plan 3 years ago to go through Pacific Care (who covered 100% with Cedar Sinai to have my band. It was covered with them if my Pcp recommended it. I had to do the classes, and meet with the Nutritionist then I was able to have my band in about 6 months, but the whole insurance switch was a nightmare for everyone else in my family. I switched back to Kaiser now, and I'm wondering if they will do my fills, or do I have to go through a long drawn out process.

Getting Ready for Spring Bootcamp
I've excerised every day this week,I go to the y at 5am to swim laps and do water aerobics,then later in the evening I go do an hour in the gym My favorite machine is the crosstrainer I can burn 400 calories in 35 minutes even more if I'm on the machine with cable tv hooked up to it. took my vitamins most days and drank more water. I was a little frustrated because the weight seemed to be staying the same, but I totally see muscle definition in my legs and arms after a month of consistent workout. So hopefully in feb I will start seeing the pounds drop,with my new muscles doing the burning of more fat. P.s: OKie thank you for checking in with me.

February 2006 bandsters unite!!
yeah Srae I am that same boat. I have had 3 fills, I got a little more restriction with this last fill. But I can pretty much eat what I want, as long as I chew. As a matter of fact I just had my first PB today, I was eating a piece of toast, and it got stuck. I have had the lapband for over 6 months.

Adjustment Question
Jdjj- I wish I could say my fill was better, but when I had my fill this past wednesday the Dr said, my port is really deep, and it turned just a little, I think it took 20 minutes for him to find it, he asked me if the other Dr. had a hard time too, I was just worried the pain reliever would wear off. Well I think this Doc actually really filled me, because every time I drink something I have these spasms in my stomach. I don't think my surgeon who did my first two ever filled me up right,cause when I looked at the xray the barium ran out real fast, and I never had restriction, this new Doc showed me the screen as I sipped the barium and it just sat there, then it slowly began to trickle out. Will this spasm thing only be temporary? I haven't started foods yet, but when I do, I better Chew Chew Chew

Pseudo Tumor Cerebri Diaged in March 06
Hello, Mom of many, I also have or had psuedo tumor, I saw a neurologist and an opthmalogist, I was diagnosed with this maybe 3 years ago, I had the Lumbar where they removed the fluid, the dr, said he removed a lot of fluid, but the fluid immediately starts to come back. (I didn't like the LP) I took the diurectics for a short period of time. What I did immediately was start losing weight, as this is the only thing that can reverse this, I also had the lapband and have lost about 50lbs all together. My headches have disappeared, I don't know if it's gone yet, but I'm hoping with my next appointment that it will be gone. Did you know that a person could go blind from a psuedo tumor? this blew me away.....I suggest the lapband, I prefer this anyday overthat lp. This PTC is what helped me get an approval for this lapband.
