Hi everyone, I need some insight on the lap procedure. My insurance has approved me for GB, but I am thinking that I would really prefer a LB. I have BC/BS of MD; do you think they would renege on my apporval for the other surgery. I would really prefer the lap procedure for all the obvious reasons. I want to call my insurance provider on Monday, but I am a bit apprehensive. Any words of advice? The Doctor who got me approved for GB does not do the LB procedure. Thanks guys!

I'm also researching the band for the same reasons. Good luck to everyone. I have been approved for GB, but I don't want to do it anymore. I want the band instead, so I hope my insurance won't renege on the approval.

You guys are great. I'm reading and asking questions. I have been researching June of last year and thought GB was right for me. Lap band is better for me. I'll let you all know what happens.

Hi everyone, New to the group; I am researching this procedure and wether it will be good for me. I have been approved for GB, but I have decided to take a second look. Can anyone let me know what's the likelihood I will be approved for Lap. I'm hoping my insurance won't renege on this. I also wouls like to do the procedure in MD. Can anyone help me get a peace of mind? Thanks....
