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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Welcome! I'm fairly new to this site too. Just got my surgery date this week, so I'm thrilled to death. Fortunately, my surgeon and his practice has a wonderful support group, it's a shame that yours did not. Best of luck to you in starting one with the rest of your friends.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Welcome, glad you found us! As far as support group help, I have never been to one, the nearest to me is too far away, and I have no idea what they do there!! Some of the ones on here go to one, maybe they can share what they do there!
