I have pcos, and I take metformin, I dont have any of the co morbidities, but my bmi is a 43. I am not exactly sure why I was approved for stage 2, if it was because i have a bmi over 40 and been over weight for a long period of time and had attempted and failed so many times or what. I think your doc is just being lazy. You could drive over to my doctor. Its about an hour and a half drive, but she would do it for you. her name is Dr. Rachel Bickling at Jefferson Healthcare In port Townsend. She is a great doctor. and Jefferson healthcare hospital will pay for the NUT also because medicaid dont cover it.

Anyone in Vancouver with Molina. I can't seem to find a therapist who is familiar with the bariatric patients and what these appointments need to consist of

I live in Tacoma. Honestly I think my doctor doesn't support stuff like that, maybe that's why she's acting like that. I've been trying and trying. I'm 24 years old and I just want to live my life finally, it sucks.. Good luck tomorrow I hope it goes smoothly.

To be honest I don't think this surgery is covered buy that type of insurance that was the first thing that they said in my seminar.

iI go for my Appt with the Surg. on Dec. 7th. They submit the papers at that time for my final submission for surgery approval. And at that time I also start my 1,000 low cal liver shrink diet for 3 wks. Surgery would be scheduled. within 4-5 weeks later. So around January. Perfect start to A New Year.

How are you doing? Hope all is going well for you?
