Band was removed 04/16/14-procedure went well. Little pain, more side effects from going under than anything. Scheduled to be sleeved 06/10/14!

Scheduled "tentative" surgery dates, and Doc sent off to insurance. Praying for approval on my revision.

Current insurance will not cover a lap band to to sleeve revision if there have not been any major complictions with the band itself. Fortuantely for me, it is open season enrollment for healthcare so I may have other options. Hoping and praying!!!!

nervous and frustrated, my insurance is taking their sweet time deciding if my revision from band to sleeve is "medically necessary"
asking for positive thoughts and vibes!
thanks all!!
