tflemon67 88 Posted September 17, 2012 Does any one know if true results will finance all the lap band surgery ? Yes they wil. The entire surgery is $9900 and they will finance at $235 per month for 5 years if you are not approved by Care Credit. Luckily I did have a hernia so my portion of the band is $5500. I'll pay $266.42 per month for 2 years. Worth every dime. My surgeon is Dr. Reilly through True Results Houston. Good luck, DON'T GIVE UP!! 2 vmarlau and brlgirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladymarshall 61 Posted September 22, 2012 I had my blood work done here where I live....for EGD you need an adult to be with you they put you to sleep Found out today Dr Reily will be my doctor as well. Cindy is my Patient Advocate and I had my blood work, EKG, and the test well I had to blow through the tube. I think it was to check my lungs. They all have to be cleared but the young lady who did my two test said they look really good. I've never had health issues so I'm sure I will be cleared by next week. My EGD is scheduled for Oct 25 and surgery will be on the 29th as long as my test n blood clear next week. How long was the EGD test?

The EGD doesn't take long, maybe 1 hour but you'll be put under and will have to have someone drive you home so you can sleep off the anesthesia. Keep me posted, you'll be in bandster land soon!!
