Changing ins. Want to have sleeve.

April my ins changes to medicare/BCBSCplus. I am 65 and want to have the sleeve done ASAP. How long do I have to wait and what was your experience as far as how fast did you lose? I have uncontrolled diabetes. Thanks for any information.

    Everything seems so different but my husband has Medicare/BCBS. I have Medicare/Avmed and Medicare required 3 months of classes, doctor visits, 1 psych visit, nutrition classes, bloodwork, etc., and the 3 months flew by quickly and we were both sleeved. Happy as can be! Best wishes!

    I have BCBS as well, and it was about 3 months from beginning to end to complete everything... but as stated, it went rather quickly...best thing EVER...
