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.

Cool

Thanks all for the congrats,

I didnt think that it would happen this quickly. I am happy that its starting though, I had to make a calender with all my appts, I have about 10 of them between now and then, But with just my surgeons requirements I just have to do the Blended diet review, gallbladder ultrasound, and some pretesting. I dont no about a sleep apnea test, they never mentioned it to me, I have not been tested and hate to think that that was overlooked. I plan to ask tonight in my support group. I am really lucky, I guess because I got an early time for surgery, 750 AM so I wont have a need to drink or eat in the morning because there is no drinking within 4 hours of the surgery and no eating after midnight~ like I would do that anyways, I guess this means that I will need to get my house in order before going in, that shouldnt be too hard to do, but I will need to do shopping for home and make a shopping list so my hubby can do this without me if I am in any pain after I get home which I am sure i will be. I found a protein shake that I like already so that is one thing down, just about a gazzillion more things to do.

Sounds like you are doing great so far! CONGRATS! It's a wonderful, wild ride! October will be here before you know it. The time will go by so fast now that you will be so busy getting ready for surgery.

If there is anything we all can do to help your journey go more smoothly, please don't hesitate to ask!

Hugs,
Shelley
