I have tried sooo many diets and think I'm ready to resort to WLS. I haven't even told my husband that I scheduled an appointment for a lap band consult on 2/8/11. I also scheduled my psych visit that morning. The insurance specialist told me I would need to have a sleep study done. I feel sooo overwhelmed with the feeling that my insurance will not pay for this. I do have lap band benefits, but my BMI is 36. I know that if I continue without surgery my weight will continue to increase. I have BCBS insurance. Has anyone had surgery with a BMI of 36...did insurance cover?...were you self pay? I am curious to know how much the procedure will cost if I decide to go the self pay route.
Any info will be appreciated. Everyone is such an inspiration on here.
