I'm sorry to hear you got denied. I'm in the same boat as you right now except I haven't been denied just yet. Still waiting to hear from True Results. I had my final appointment last Tuesday. I've started the pre-op diet. If I get denied this will seem to have been a waste of time. I leave it in God's hands.

Thank you for responding. So it seems you did get approved because you in fact did have a co-morbidity with the sleep apnea. At True Results for my final appointment I was given a EPT test to see if I needed to be referred for sleep apnea. Apparently I didn't because the nutriotionist said the test went well. Since I don't have a co-morbidity then I'm worried I might get denied since I don't think my BMI was 40 or above for the past 3 years. I'm at 43 right now though. Ughh so frustrating!

Wow, well from the lack of responses this doesn't bode well for me.

Hello all, I'm a happily married new 34 yr old daddy of a precious baby girl. My weight has been issue for close to ten years now. Luckily my wife has stuck with me through this whole time but it's time to make things right. During my teen years and into my early twenties I exercised vigorously and dieted in order to get in shape. Unfortunately, I could only sustain that for about a year at a time. Afterwards I would gain tons of weight and then some. Hopefully this Lap Band will provide me the tool to help out in the food department. I pray I get my Lap Band this summer. I'm going to my 4th appointment tomorrow. :thumbup:
