Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
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.

I've heard about this before - I'd be concerned about something happening within one of the folds - or what if the sutures failed and the stomach unfolded?? I realize it's still investigational and they're studying it it further.
