Love2Live 0 Posted September 7, 2007 Well Hello everybody! I was finally approved last week after a long battle with the insurance company. My surgery is set for early October with the a pre diet staring 2 weeks prior. I don't know why after so long fighting to be approved, I am starting to feel afraid. I am afraid that I may not loose the 115lb I have dreamed of loosing. I guess I am going through anxiety though it bothers me that I can personally run into people who have had the Gastro Bypas Surgery, but not the Lapband Surgery. Well I hope to write on these blogs until I meet my goal. L2L :whoo: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alfie 58 Posted September 7, 2007 Hi, I believe that some insurance companies didn't always approve lapband. A lot of people where I work had the gastric bypass but I know our coverage did not cover lap band a few years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
