  1. Will Tricare approve me (if I beg?)

    I am 5'6", also I do have sleep apnea which I think might be a comorbidy. I am not sure.

    You are reading the words of a very desperate woman! I am 25, and weigh 222 (4lbs more than last month, 25lbs more than last year) A personal trainer, gym membership, and several diets later and I'm still gaining weight consistantly (seems to be no medical reason for this but I recently found out that I gorge myself in my sleep, clean up the mess and go back to bed.) I have an appointment next month to see Dr ganta (he does single incision lap band) and I am terrified of being rejected through tricare. My BMI is 36%, I have elevated cholesterol, possibly pre diabetic, who knows (runs in the family) but my blood pressure is normal and I am not arthritic. Really dont know where to go from here if I am rejected (which I think I will be) Any thoughts on the subject?:thumbup:
