Just about the time we think that things will NEVER work out, they do. I am praying that everything goes your way. It is unfair that this surgery isn't offered more extensively. As most of us KNOW, diets do not work and for some of us, this is the only hope we have of shedding the unwanted weight. This HMO crap is for the birds. Never can understand the rhyme or reason for it. Don't they realize that the long term health care for an obese person is far more than the one time surgery cost.<br><br>PS: I haven't even thought about getting a new doctor because, believe it or not, this doctor is 100% better than my old doctor. My old doctor would hand me pieces of paper with diets on them and tell me to walk five miles a day. (Used the diets for toilet paper and sat <!--more--> on my fat butt). The only doctor's in our area either aren't accepting new patients or don't speak English. An important criteria for me. I will get my boost in August when I go to see my weight-loss surgeon. They are always full of praise. A great moral booster.<br><br>Thanks...Helen If there is a will, there is a way. Just about
