Hello Every1,

I am new here, although I have been reading for about 3 months.

I am awaiting the response from my insurance company as I have completed all requirements.

My Dr told me to be prepared for surgery on April 4th, he is confident that I will be approved, I am nervous.

I have arhtritic knees, heartburn, chest pains & failed attempts at weight loss.

I am 5.2 bmi 40.

This is nerve wracking waiting.

But I'm trying to be PATIENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Hopefully you'll hear about insurance approval soon.

Welcome and good luck.

Gunn4ya,

Thank you I am trying to be patient.

Thanks for the welcome, this site is awesome.

Best of luck to you, Dlynn. Remember, we didn't get this way over night and it may take a bit to get the band. But certainly worth the wait! Did you ever find out about where your dr. does the procedure? You had asked earlier about an "in-office" procedure.

My Doctor does the surgery in either his office or the hospital, I prefer the hospital though.
