Everything was submitted to my insurance company today...

the insurance lady at my surgeon's office said I should know by the end of next week if my insurance will approve and pay for the Lap Band.

Keep your fingers crossed for me please. I can't afford to pay cash for this at all and the insurance will pay for it 100% if they approve me.

My BMI is 37.5 but my insurance will cover it at a BMI of 35 with one co morbidity. I have hypertension and sleep apnea so we're hoping I'll be covered with no problem.
