So xcited...i gotta buddy! Anyways, i was originally denied the procedure after jumping thru all my insur hoops.I have no major medical problem but my bmi is crazy high!(Its like 42 or something.) I was so dissapointd that i was denied so i started looking on line & found this obesitylaw.com.They helped me with my appeal to the insur. and with there help they got my insur to approve the lap-band.Oh ya,there was no charge to me!!! Not 1 cent!!!The company Allergen(they make the lap band device) pays em to help people like me...I guess if you have that high of a bmi u do not need any co-morbid problems.I am going to Dr.Takahashi at the south bay surgeons in Torrance Ca.Like I said been fighting for 2 yrs. so i can sooo help u with info! Well if your at least thinking @ lap-band you do have a START!!!!! A couple friends of mine have gone to that Top Surgeons in Beverly Hills & they got there approval in 3 months!!!! Well talk to u soon.....Maureen
