I know this is silly becuase i have not even talked to my new PCP yet, but i have anxiety about the whole surgery and getting approved. I have a BMI of 39 but not sure about the co-morbidities. I dont know if I am going to get through or that my new PCP is going to agree with me about my decision. Any advice on how to talk to your PCP?

Little more pressure added to my experience. I am 21 and fall under my dad's insurance still which is through the union. Well he lost his job and our insurance expires on October 31st. He needs to find a job through the union before the insurance will kick in. I see my PCP tomorrow and I am going to ask what he can do. For my medical group I am required to do a 16-18 week program before even being referred. ahh just another sign that this is in God's hands and timing

YAY!! Saw my PCP this morning and he gave me my referral. Now off to my 5 month class Thank You guys for all the support

THats great!!! hopefully your dad will find a job through the union and his medical will stay active so you wont have to worry about it... Ill say a prayer for you
