Altoonasoup 0 Posted June 27, 2006 Thanks for the reply! I can see what you mean about the Insurance co trying to discourage you. Kinda like claims getting tied up in court. If they can wear you out, they win! I sure hope that I don't have to wait another 6 months. My health is going down quickly. I don't know what shape I'll be in 6 months from now.

Busy 0 Posted June 27, 2006 I have Anthem and am in the process of the 6 month diet, appointment #5 is tomorrow then one more month to go. It does go by quicker than you think. Keep your chin up and your eye on the goal, before you know it you will be the leader of the band (forgive, I could not resist!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beachgirl 2 Posted June 27, 2006 Hi Kentuckians, I live in Paducah, Kentucky. I didn't have too much luck with Anthem BC/BS, too many hoops. I'm self pay July 10th, Monterrey Mexico. I went to the seminar at Baptist Hospital in Nashville but they just hadn't done enough of them for me and Vandy had done even less. Good luck, Sherri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Busy 0 Posted June 28, 2006 Sherri Wow, your date is just around the corner. Luck to you. I live in Hopkinsville and am in Paducah alot. I'm holding out for insurance to reimburse some of the money I have put into it these last 20 some odd years. But if they let me down I may have questions about Mexico.

Misfortune 0 Posted July 15, 2006 I am from Bowling Green, Ky. And was wondering if anyone on here has heard of Dr. Argotee in Paducah? He is at Lourds Pavillion? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Busy 0 Posted July 15, 2006 I am familiar with Lourds but not with Dr Argotee. Do a search on him and see if there is a review from patients who have been treated by him. Good Luck PJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sherry matt 0 Posted July 20, 2006 Iziksmom, Hi! I am also seeing Dr. Olsofka. I have heard only GOOD things about him. Isn't it funny how different insurances have you do different things before the surgery. I am in the beginning part of the process, you sound like you are doing great! Keep up the good work, I hope to find out when I will be banded. Sherry Matt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
