Hi congrats on ur date it seems if all goes well with insurance we will be sharing banding that day i to got my date today for the 21st but we have to submit to insurance first i am keeping my fingers crossed. If you dont mind me asking what kind of ins. do you have and why did you get denied I am just trying to prepare myself for the worse. I am only 25 so I am worrying that they will deny because i am young but in 7- 10 as the ins. lady told me i will know anyway congrats on your journey!!!!!!!!!!:thumbup:

I have cigna insur... I think they said no the first time because i needed a few more months toward my 6 month medical diet ...i hope you get you date too we can be band buddies
