I'm so sorry to hear that! I know when I was finally approved and was setting up my surgery, I was told my portion of surgery would be $250 - after I was approved and was actually scheduling surgery they called and told me my portion was almost $3000 - I was totally shocked and immediately in tears! Fortunately they helped me with financing and I had the band placed on Dec 21, 2012!
I know right now it seems like it won't happen. But where there is a will, there is a way. Stay positive and keep the faith! I had actually wanted the band placed since 2001...so if you want it - keep fighting for it! Good luck and keep us posted!
