Is there anyone on here in Kentucky that has either been sleeved or going through the process? I am in central Kentucky and it would be nice to have someone to chat with or text when I have questions or struggles. I know several people that have had gastric bypass and lap band but none that have been sleeved.

Thanks!! Do you know when you get to have surgery?

No not yet just finished my history and physical, insurance cord. Said she was working on packet to send out to the insurance company by Tuesday and hopefully ill have an answer by Friday!! Praying that is true and ill obtain a date sometime before 2013. How long was ur wait for the approval?

I had approval in 24 hours. You could easily have surgery in less than 3 months. :-)

Well keeping my fingers cross would love to be scheduled in Nov-Dec since the only thing I left to do is my surgeon consult, and pay the balance on my program fee...

Dr. Weiss IS pretty to look at, but it is his sincerity and confidence that I find most attractive. I haven't seen him since the day I was released from the hopsital, but should I ever get to face him again, I want to hug him as hard as I can!

newnew13, I was self pay (insurance doesn't cover any WLS), so I didn't have to wait for an approval, but I did the surgeon's consult and i had surgery 9 days later! So if your approval goes through, you should surely be good to go before the new year...good luck! Oh, and yes, Dr. Weiss is easy on the eyes

I was born in Lexington KY but i live in Cincinnati. I will be a year post op November 9th. if anyone has any questions i will be more than happy to help. Just send me a message or add me as a friend.

I'm not from KY but Southern IN, fairly close to Louisville. I haven't been sleeves yet but I'm one nut appointment away from sending everything off to insurance

I live in Ky. I'm getting sleeved on Monday. I'm really excited!

Had my last pre op NUT appointment today!! It's all in the hands of the insurance now. *gulp*
