Hello all I am new to this site and I was wondering what my chances are for approval. I am in the beginning stage of of doing my test and am firm on my decision to want to do the lap band. Currently I weight 320 I am 5 11 with severe sleep apnea, high blood pressure and starting to have joint pain. I have tired to loose weight but cant keep it off or loose enough. I have been with my primary care doctor for 2 years and another doctor for 3 years but i always been heavy would I have to get records from both? Anyway any help would be greatly appreciated I have blue-cross blue shield of Tennessee.
