Hello Newbie Here

[Guest shellymoyo13]

I'VE BEEN LOOKING AROUND AT HAVING A LAP BAND PROCEDURE DONE AND I'M TRYING TO GET ALL THE INFO I CAN ON IT. i WOULD ALSO LIKE TO TRY AND FIND A DOCTOR CLOSE TO ME THAT DOES IT AND I'M HOPING HUBBY'S INS. WILL ACCEPT, THEY SAY THAT AS LONG AS YOU ARE OVER A BMI OF 40 ( I AM) AND HAVE CO-MORBITIY ISSUES (I DO) THEY WILL COVER IT SO FINGERS CROSSED.

Hi Shelly,

Welcome to LBT!! Good luck with your insurance, and please keep us posted as to when/whether you get an approval. I've heard Pennsylvania is among the worst states for banding coverage.

Nice to meet you. Please come again!

Hi Shelly,

Good luck on getting the band. I hope it all works out for you. I have only had mine 7 weeks but don't regret a minute of it. Best wishes, Teresa
