I drink the Atkins Protein shake, it has 15g Protein. My daughter uses gummy vitamins. (She had lap band in May). Forgive my ignorance, what's Unjury?

My surgeon is Dr. Quinones. I have been in touch with several people that got their sleeve with him and they say he was very good. I am excited but at the same time nervous. I am the mother of 3, ages, 21,17 and 16, My oldest is in college and the other 2 are on the way. I just finalized my divorce in November. I'm getting a brand new lease on life. WATCH OUT NOW!!

What insurance is everyone using? For those going to Mexico, what's the cost? And the procedure?

[jessy1523 27]

Yes Unjury is good but could be costly bc the shake container is not big - but overall pretty good and there is a really good tasting one from Vitamin Shoppe I will get the name of it and post "anabolic muscle"

Bcbs - and no anthem should not deny u no worries bc anything u were pre approved for will care over

I've got an aetna ***. I'm worried about how much it's going to cost. the cost last year was 18k for the procedure. I have a 1500 deductible and I'm not sure how to ask how much it's going to cost. They haven't talked about pricing at all. I just don't want to get the surgery and figure out that they were out of network. I mean, I got the letter of approval but I'm not sure if that really means coverage. Feels a little ridiculous to be this close and not know these things.

since when is h m o a dirty word?

My doc doesn't submit until all the requirements are met. So I won't know until mid February.
