nanajo 0 Posted January 23, 2008 I joined back in September, but then found that lap banding was not an option for me due to insurance coverage. The only thing they woudl cover was bypass and I was terrified to do it. Now I just heard that Tricare is now paying for lap banding . I am so excited and I calling my primary doc for a referral tomorrow. So I will be here listening and learning from all of you. I am so glad you guys are here.
