OK thanks do you know how many appointments they usually make you go to.

Thank you guys! I called the same department each time for information that's the thing that ticked me off the most but but hey I got APPROVED!!! So what happens now?

I was also on the fence about the band, sleeve, or bypass but I elected for the band because in my opinion the risks were lower and if I had complications it is reversible and since for my age (21) I wanted something that is reversible and I like the fact that you can control how much weight you loose.

My doctors sent my information into the insurance 2 weeks ago and I haven't heard ANYTHING!! My BMI is WAY over 40 but I have no co- something or others (: So I know how you feel....wishing you luck from NC!!

Well great I'm So happy to find you lady's so close, have any of you been banded yet?

Haha are you sure I don't just ask one or two questions lol I have thousands!.. I'm so glad I found someone in my area!

Yes definantly I go to Charlotte just about every other weekend! I totally want to hear your good bad and ugly stories!

No hickory, NC

Thank you And I too am on here daily and I hope to read more about your WL journey!

It is so refreshing to see people my own age having the lap band. I am 21 and just had my application sent in to the insurance so I am impatiently waiting! I haven't told many people about my decision just some close friends not even my mother! My question is how did you all figure out who you were gonna tell and do you have a lot of extra skin I'm considered severe morbidly obese but I'm still gorgeous! I'd love to hear from you guys cause I need all the support I can get especially from people my own age!

Hey I was just wondering did you ever get approved and what kind of hoops did you have to go through because I have the same insurance?

Lol thank younso muchnas of yet i've only been required to domthe psych eval so hopefully it won't be too bad.

Hey I am new to this app and I am tremendously nervous and scared that I may not get approved my BMI is wayyyy over 40 and I am border line diabetic. I am waiting on my psychiatric report to be sent to my surgeons office. My question is has anyone had to deal with Cvs medcost or CVS Caremark? Is this insurance hard to get approved with? ANY advice at all is greaty appreciated. I hope everyone has a great weekend and Happy Mother's Day!
