    Your profile didn't provide any info, so I don't know. Is there a medical justification for it?

    What do u mean

    A few basic stats. Your BMI, your age, and co-morbities or medical issues that make you a good candidate for WLS. Do you have a primary doctor to help you through this process? That sort of thing. We can't help you without some basic info.

    What happened to going through Madigan? Are you completely opposed to going to Mexico? Mexico has a Bariatric Center Of Excellence, no different then one in the States.

    @bittersweet: I was dropped from tricare because I stopped going to school. And im 23. The chick on mchord said I couldn't enroll. @ mexico isnt an option at the moment.

    Blerdgirl: idk if pcos would be a co morbitie and asthma. Im 23. 265. Which I believe is 46 bmi. Standing at 5'3 correct me if I'm wrong. But I called Evergreen Hospital in Kirkland, WA she said they accept Medicaid. So we shall see!
