Sooo, what are all these many tests we have to go thru.?? i dont need a 6 month diet program as i have been on 2 anyway. dont have sleep apnea, see a psych doctor anyway. I can see the need for the normal tests you go thru before any surgery. blood,ekg,etc. Just curious what others have to do? I have greaat insurance thru United Healthcare which is thru my retirement plan as i taught at schools till last year when i turned 50 and was able to take the retirement and qualify for the plan. It has no deductibles even

The upper GI they do is looking for any stricter or cancer making sure all is well with the stomache before they do the surgery. Do you have a surgery date scheduled yet?
