Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

DITTO!!!!!!! I know support is VERY important, but I honestly feel that I get it from this place. I really REALLY do. I haven't been to a meeting either, so I guess it wouldn't be fair for me to compare what we have here to a meeting, but I truly feel we have it all right here. We have post ops 2 yrs out, 5 yrs out, we have a Dr. here to help explain and give advice (when she can "legally"). I feel totally blessed to have all of you in my life.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Yep, I agree too! My favorite thing is that it seems like someone is always passing thru to talk to and if you have a question or are worried about something at, say, 3am you can dig around and almost always find info here. My doc's support group is more like an advertisement for his program, we dont really talk to other postops, just the people looking into having surgery. I luv this site!

I agree, this site is awesome! I only wish that we were closer together so that we could all get together occasionally. That is the only advantage that I see with a support group. My doc has one that meets on the first Saturday every month, but unfortunately I have not been able to get to one. My little guy plays on a traveling soccer team, so our weekends are always tied up.
