Phranp 46 Posted April 29, 2009 Hi, I'm new here. Hope someone can help, I am becoming very anxious. I called my doc office today and was told that BCBS is giving my application for the lapband surgery "further review". Should I call the insurance company or should I just wait? I have several comorbidities including type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, high blood pressure, asthma, spinal stenosis, arthritis in my knees and hips, BMI=40, 150 lbs overweight. BCBS requires six months weight loss supervision by a medical professional. I have been doing this with my therapist. I keep a personal journal AND a food journal tracking my weight and my feelings. I am not sure if BCBS will accept this. Anyone out there have their weight supervision in a non-traditional way? I appreciate any information you can give me. Thank you.
