So u didnt have any health issues before? All u need is a 35 BMI to quilify

Tricare's requirement Is a BMI over 40 or a BMI of 35-39.9 with one comorbidity....for example high blood pressure, diabetes...etc but you also need 6 months of supervised diet and exercise to be approved in the TriWest region...I believe other areas have different requirements regarding the supervised diet..

oh pumpkin...i wish i knew what to say to help more..

you need to have your reg dr refer you for surgery

they need to let tricare know you need help

that is how i started.....i found a lap band dr who accepted tricare

had my dr refer them to tricare and then i went from there

my bmi was very high but no other issues (other then sleep apnea but i was aready approved for surgery by the time the lap band clinic wanted me to have a sleep test)

dont give up
