I will be going through my insurance BCBS of MA. All my prep (GI, psych, sleep study, nutrition) is scheduled over the next two months. I see my Dr. in July and they told me the surgery will be 8/9/10. I do work within the same hospital so could that have something to do with it? I've made two phone calls but haven't received a response yet. I almost don't want to question the process, but don't want to be denied by my insurance at the last second either.

My surgery is scheduled for 8/9/10. I feel like something is wrong though. I went for my first and only appt and they scheduled the date at the end. They set me up for all my pre work right then and there. At first I assumed that I was approved for everything but as I read more I feel like it can't be that easy.

I went to my intake appt last week and my surgeon told me about VSG. I'm was firm on having the band, but after reading up on the procedure I'm thinking of changing my mind. I'm really looking for the Pro vs. Cons of the band and VSG. So far this forum has been very helpful but I'm looking for all the info I can get. Thanks in advance

Thank you DeeDee..I really appreciate your open and honest opinion. What a hard decision to make
