plum33 17 Posted August 24, 2016 yes they have support groups every week. i just need to go. Did you get approved yet ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
achappex3 346 Posted August 24, 2016 Nope! I still have one more diet visit and a class. I'll be done on October 5th and it will be submitted that day. I have, however, attended support groups. I was worried about being my age and having the surgery. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sporin 40 Posted August 30, 2016 Just got my surgery date of October 5th. Now I wait to see if Cigna approves it or if there are issues. Been working on per-surgery requirements for both Cigna, and the DHMC program for the last year, I'm excited to actually DO IT!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
