I am 5'10" and weighed 258lbs at my first office visit. I have had one knee surgery and am getting ready to do my second. My cholesterol is high, but not anything other than fish oil high. My surgeons office has all my paper work and was reviewing it wed. now its friday and I am going nuts waiting on TRIWEST!! I know it's been all of 2 days but how long do you think it will take Triwest to make a decision either way? I am so ready to start my new life BANDED!!
