  1. Dr. Dana Portenier - Recommend Duke Weight Loss Surgery

    erikaroe replied to skep's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
    I am thinking about this and I have BCBS of NC also. I am unsure whether they will approve it, because my BMI is only 38. But I have type 1 diabetes, no high BP, no high cholesterol, and I am 29 years old. I also have hypothyroidism and have had my thyroid removed because of a goiter about five years ago. I have an insulin pump. What do you guys think??
