Band Coming Out
I went to the Dr. today, and he is submitting to ins for approval to have band removed....I am hoping to get sleeve....My ins wont cover, but if I do it at the same time as the band removal, it will be much less than if I was going in there totally self pay. Please say a prayer that this will all work out....and please tell me reasons you love your sleeve!!!!
Thanks
Christa
BYE BYE BAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO HOO
I haven't gotten a sleeve yet but hope to in a few years when I get on medicare. Just want to say congrats on the demise of your band. I sure wish I knew then what I know now! I haven't seen anyone who was unhappy with their band to sleeve and I keep a pretty close watch over here! Prayers that this will all fall in place for you!!!
Same here! The insurance paid for band removal and would have paid if the sleeve was done than. But, the surgeon wouldn't do it in one shot. Now I am fighting to get insurance to pay. I made it thru the first two steps by now am at the point of no return, they put in for the sleeve. It is pending now but, the person in the know is gone until next Tuesday and it hit the insurance company today.
