The "silver lining"

by BellaTrix on 10-25-2013 at 12:28 PM
This past week I found out that I misunderstood my insurance coverage (under my husband)
It doesn't cover the gastric sleeve!!!
I have been working on the 6 mon required diet since July and now the insurance won't even cover the sleeve!! I was floored!
It will cover bypass and lap band- but I want neither of these.

So now it's off to "Plan B".

The Dr. Is In

Finally got to meet my surgeon today and I really like him!!
He has a warm caring personality and is very down to earth. Such a relief!!
I've been a little worried up to this point. I've met Dr's for other reasons in the past and had not been totally content when the appt was over.
