    VSG with a Mirena

    Have Mirena and did not have to take mine out for surgery (June 30th). However I know some who DID have to remove it prior to surgery so talk to your surgeon just to be sure. Another person in my group asked if it could be a contributing factor to her non weight loss as she had it put in AFTER her surgery, so you can ask your surgeron that question as well.

    AETNA 3 month or 6 month?

    I had high blood pressure and was pre diabetic. But if you have a BMI over 40 you don't need to have a comorbid condition. You qualify.... Find a bariatric specfic surgeon. Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App

    AETNA 3 month or 6 month?

    My insurance coverage was for 3 months. My PCP had given me a referral for weight loss surgery. I worked directly with my surgeon and his office (all I had to get from my PCP was my 2 year Weight hx...which showed I'd been obese for years). I did my 3 NUT visits (with a 4th cause I gained weight...don't gain weight, as well as all the other testing required in that 3 month period. My BMI was 45, Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App
