who is your doctor

I just got a call that I have to start the whole process over July 2016. My BMI in 2014 was 34 and was 36 in July 2015. I was all done with my pre appointments except for the nutritional classes ... and was looking at Surgury the beginning of the year ... now I will have to wait till Jan 2017 ... anyone else had this happen ... I wanna cry

I have 2 more nutrition classes ... then it will be submitted for approval ... fingers crossed
-
how did you make out? Did you have your surgery?
-
I have a few questions for anyone who has already had surgery and has Arena insurance ... how long was the approval process after your last nutrition class? How long did it take to get a surgery date? Thanks

I am in the process... have 4 nutrition classes ... then I will have a surgery date ... going through Dr. Wasser ... Mt Laurel NJ

Got an update on Friday ... I have an appointment Monday and may be back on track just a month or two behind instead of a year!

Thank you that helped! I will have my last nutrition class the end of December ... so I am guessing surgery will be mid February

I am on 3 BP meds ... I have Aetna ... my issue is I had no weights recorded for 2013 ... BMI was 34 in 2014 and 36 in 2015 ... however in 2014 I worked my tail off to lose a few pounds and then gained it back ... now I have to weight till end of July 2016 to start the process over

I have to wait a year because my BMI has to be above 35 for two consecutive years

Anyone looking at a January date for surgery?

I am looking at around mid January ... getting all the doctors appointment done now ... then 4 nutrition appointments -
I am very new to the process and just starting the appointment to get approved. My BMI is around 37. I have very high blood pressure. When I go to the nutritional classes is the goal to lose weight? I am concerned if I do my BMW will be below 35.
