For Those Who Paid For The Lb Thru Insurance...
ElleG replied to futuresize8's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Honestly I would hope if the insurance pays for the surgery they will cover the fills. I have blue care network they cover everything I just pay a $10 co-pay each visit (thank GOD). Check the insurance company's web site for more info. Good luck -

Any Good Suggestions?
ElleG replied to futuresize8's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doc let me do two shakes per day and a healthy choice or lean cusine for dinner. Not bad at all. I started early to get use to it and was able to survive. Good luck -
