feel the same
Hi, I have all the same worries. I guess we have failed so many times at dieting that it's hard for us to believe that the surgery will work. I have a friend that had gastric bypass and know several others and all have been successful, when they failed at dieting like me, many times before, so it must work for most people.
I have been fighting with my ins. co since April about approval for my lap band. My ins co requires five years of office notes with weights and altho, I have been overweight most of my adult life, I cannot get the written proof they want. ( Long story why).
I am now to the point where even though we have ins, I might have to self pay. I hate to, when I know my employer pays for my ins and we contribute monthly as well and it is a covered benefit.
Have been very depressed over the whole matter for months now. I am checking to see how much it costs and to see if this is something we can afford to pay for.
Good Luck and keep asking questions.
