Thanks... I am hoping it won't take that long...My 1st Doctor visit is Thursday the 21st to get a letter of medical ness for my insurance company. Then I go to a information session on the 26th of AUG. Which is required as well. I want this to not take too long casue I want and need this surgery.:crying:

Thanks or the info... It seems ike they will pay for it.. I have my 1st appointment with my PCM on Thursday Aug 21st....Wish me luck!

Ok..I have been overweight for a long time but never gave it any thought untill yesterday when I became out of breath rom jusr shaving my legs. That kind of scared me. I know have my 1st appointment with my faimly doctor to talk about it and to try to get a reffural and letter of Med Ness. so my insurance will pay for it. My BMI is over 45% and I am about 150 lbs overweight... I have back and knee problems, asthma, sleep issues, migraines, high colestrol and I can't lay on my back at night for over 10 min. I have Tri Care withch is a Militray insurance.. Anyone ever try to get the sugery done with thid kind of insurance.... Thanks From Ashevile NC:mellow:
