Topic: RE: APPROVED..........

Melissa, did you use Tricare for your surgery? If so, what was the approval process? I have read the manual and it seems with a BMI of 40+ with a morbidity you should not have any problems.
Do you need a referral and the five year medical history?

Topic: RE: what to take to the hospital
I've seen nightgown listed on several packing lists and I don't want to sound dumb but can you wear your own in the hospital? I may have to buy one then...I sleep in a tshirt and shorts at home.

Thanks,
Melissa
