Hi there everyone, Rikki here from houma louisiana that is near new orleans. I just got a surgery date of Nov.12,2010 . I don't have a time yet. I have BCBS of TX. I didn't get approved the first time. They pretty much told me that I was just a few pounds shy and since I didnt have any co-moridities that I needed to have a BMI of 40 to be approved. Well I did just that and sure enough I was approved. I can't wait to start this journey. I am a little scared but I am mostly excited. I have so many questions that I would like to find the answers too and so far no luck I am so anxious.
