HI I LIVE IN CONNECTICUT WHERE THERE IS MORE MONEY THAN THEY KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH, AND I REALLY NEED TO HAVE THE LAP BAND SURGERY. I CAN'T HAVE THE BYPASS BECAUSE OF A HEART CONDITION AND MY BMI IS 46.3, I HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, HIGH CHOLESTEROL, AND MY HEART DOCTOR SAYS I WILL NOT SEE MY KIDS GRADUATE. I AM GETTING REALLY SCARED. I HAVE TRIED EVERY DIET, EXERCISE, AND PILL OUT THERE AND I CAN'T LOSE THE WEIGHT. I GAINED 100 LBS. WITH EACH ONE OF MY KIDS AND CAN'T shake IT. I CAN'T DO ALOT WITH MY KIDS, AND I AM JUST REALLY TIRED. I HAVE THE HUSKY A COMMUNITY HEALTH NETWORK INSURANCE THROUGH THE STATE AND CAN'T FIND A DOCTOR. PLEASE TELL ME THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE THAT KNOWS SOMETHING OF WHAT I CAN DO.:biggrin::girl_hug::sneaky::smile2:

Can you call your insurance and ask for the closest physican in the network who does the lap band? I don't understand what the money comment has to do with anything, but that's where I'd start, with the insurance list.

Does your insurance cover lapbanding? If not you may want to consider self pay. I agree with RestlessMonkey. Start with your insurance company, find out what they do or do not cover and start with the list. Good luck
