Hi everyone! I am new to the forum. I am 5'3 and weigh about 204. Dr. Miles in Birmingham seemed so sure I would get the ins to pay for my lap band. I have sleep apnea and wear a cpap. But today I found out b/c govt has declined saying my bmi was not high enough.:faint: I have a fatty liver, gerd and apnea :notagree along with my knees are giving out. Does anyone have any advise on how to help me get approved. B/c govt. started paying for the lap band in January.:heh: Thanks, MIMI:help:
