I just heard from my surgeon's office...my sleeve was approved. March 20th is my day! Tomorrow I get my lap band removed. Please wish me luck! Sooo excited!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi Jess! Are you positive the paperwork was submitted? Mine was submitted on a Friday and a week later I was approved for the lap band removal and a few days after that, I was approved for the sleeve. I'd first call your surgeons office & see when/if they submitted your paperwork. If it's been a week, I'd call your insurance co. Good luck! [emoji177]

Hi all! My lap band removal surgery was approved, but my sleeve surgery is "still pending". Has this happened to anyone else? Is this normal? I'm so anxious.

I was approved today for my lap band removal but my sleeve surgery approval is still pending. The surgeon's office said this is normal. Has anyone experienced this??? I'm so nervous it will be denied. Help! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have a question...my paperwork is with the insurance company as I write this, so I'm hoping for a quick and easy approval. My question is...I just made the BMI with 35.2 and 2 co-morbidities. If I get approved and lose a bit of weight and fall under a 35 BMI at surgery, can they then not pay or deny me?

Awesome!! Congrats!! -
Hi All, Quick question..I have a member sign in on my BCBS website. It has a section for claims. Will it show there if my surgeon's office sent in my surgery for approval? If so, will I see the answer once they decide? Thanks. The waiting stinks!!

Hi! I'm from Edison, NJ. I'm having the band to sleeve revision with Dr. Abkin. I, too, would love a buddy to share this experience with. I say the more the merrier.

Hi all! I've had the lapband since 2008. I'm hoping for a revision to the bypass. Does anyone who has had gerd with the band and have had the bypass still get severe heartburn?

Band to Sleeve Revision...I hope
Tracyde730 posted a topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Hi all! I'm hoping for some insight/advice/encouragement. I was banded in 2008 and lost a total of 67 pounds (there was more to lose). Through the years I've gained back about 20 pounds. I have severe heartburn and am on Nexium. I'm looking into a band/sleeve revision. It scares me that the sleeve is permanent. Can someone give me a revision success story to ease my mind? I admire all of you!! -
Does anyone know how long after surgery you're allowed to go swimming? Thanks!!
