Hi Jennifer– Thanks for your input. I’m working
on gathering as much information as I can. I looked
into this a year ago myself and put it on the back
burner. Guess it wasn’t my time then either. I will
continue to learn as much as I can. I’ll keep ya
posted.

Hello Cheryl– I am not sure about your insurance
I am in Minnesota and I have never heard of that
company, I can tell you what I had to do, one, show weight
issues for 5 years at less, show attempt to loose, I had
to take a MMPI test, and then the DR that I am
seeing wrote a letter and then I had to wait wait wait,
alittle about my background , I looked in to this a year
ago, was approved and date set and I got cold feet! I
guess it just was not my time that is all. One year
later I am more then ready!! This morning I went in for
my gallbladder ultrasound ( no stones ) and I am
having surgery in Oct! YAH ~ I guess I would do your
homework! Talk to as many people as you can , read read
read– make sure you are more then comfortble with the
DR! see if you can find any one who has had services

with this person , do some background checks and see
what other people have to say about him or her! I
think that is VERY important! Other DR can say oh he
/she is wonderful but they were not on the table…
HEHEHHE I wish you all the luck in finding your answers!
You found a great group. have you clicked on the
links on front page? Wonderful reads in there! MUST DO!

GOOD LUCK!!
Jennifer : )
