SUNNYO

I want to know what kind of insurance is accepted in order to get the lap band surgery done? I have read some of the threads and postings, is it really necessary for me to go to Mexico to get the surgery done? How do you begin your search for a Dr. in Chicago, IL? Who is truly the best Dr. for the job?

Hi! JanetC my name is SunnyO and this is my 1st time chatting and deciding to get the Band. Right now I'm at a awe because I don't what to do if you could help me I would really appreciate it. Thanks, SunnyO

Hi! This is SunnyO and I have no idea on how to navigate through these threads, chatting, posting I have no idea what's going on could someone plz-z-z help me!

Hi! My name is Sunny this is my first posting and even doing this I'm nervous. I'm looking at all these postings some good some bad and I don't know what to think, but what I do know is I'm tired of being fat.:funnypost: I live in Chicago and if anyone knows about Chicago they know about the EL train and sometimes there's no escalator, no elevator, just stairs and I am the unlucky one that has to climb them everyday and before I get half way up those long stairs it feels like I'm going into the light.:faint: Well, anyway I really want to get the lap band, but one of my biggest concerns is the insurance my job doesn't offer it and I'm in a situation that I have to rob Peter to pay Paul if you know what I mean. I a full time student a mother of 4 of the most beautifulest boys you ever want to see. I've never been small when I was a child "thin was in" an thick was out. Now I've over did it in the thick dept and it's taking it's toll on me. I mean how do you find a Dr. that does this kind of thing? As I'm reading these postings it sound like anybody with M.D. behind their name can band. What insurances that are not a flop will cover your banding from beginning to end? When you read about it sounds like a piece of cake, but to read the comments of other people who actually got it done I don't know . I need to go before the Lord and pray about this one, because I don't want to be the woman on the Insider "The woman with Lap Band surgery goes wrong". I love myself , but I've tried every diet out here and it's just not working for me. And I want to be around for a while without having health problems to due to me being overweight. Sorry about my posting being so long, but I just have a lot of concerns.
