Congrats! did you do the 3 or 6 month plan? I'm trying to figure out if the 3 mos is hard to get approved? I'm a revision but I have to do the diet thing ALL OVER again :party4:

I was approved by Aetna a few weeks ago for RNY thinking about having my paperwork resubmitted for the sleeve which they added to their bullentin on 4/12.
