The Insurance Waiting Game!



Recommended Posts

30something-that is so crazy! I know you can't wait to have surgery. I know my doctor doesn't do the lapband anymore. I hear more complications with it.

Catherine2540-that is great! Good Luck! Let us know how u are doing

Update!!! So I called my insurance today. They reviewed my notes and it states I met the criteria! She said they approved on the 24th but that dept has to note it in the system and they haven't done that yet. Said they may be backed up. At least I know i am approved!!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
