libragirl76 0 Posted December 27, 2009 Hello All! This is my first post and hope everyone is good! I have just started the process to start attempting the Lap-band® Surgery. I have been to my primary doctor who did some blood work and went over my health records. I have had high blood pressure for years and ashma plus last set of blood work my blood sugar was a little high. However I am nervous because my BMI is 38 not 40 has anyone ran into this? What has their luck been with insurance paying since mine has to be authorized first? I would greatly apprecitate any input...and thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
