I am from Fayetteville and have been going to Roller Weight Loss Clinic.  My records were sent over for review and then on to Medicare for approval.  Can't wait!

Topic: New from NEA

Hey Everyone - I am new to the board and posting for the first time. I am in the approval stages of qualifying for the sleeve procedure. I am going to Dr. Bruce Jones to have this done. I am nervous as heck about the whole procedure but I have enough family history of health problems and have several health problems on my own that I feel this is the best treatment option to help me combat my health issues and get of the numerous meds that I take. I just want to be healthy and return to the active lifestyle I once enjoyed and I want to be alive to see my children grow up and God willing my grand children. I am seriously concerned about the pain factor and the recovery time with this procedure. Can anyone give me a heads up as too what to expect? Thanks in advance for the advice

I had put it on the back burner, but funny you should ask because just recently we started talking it over. Still no insurance. We tried to get insurance for the family, but nobody will cover me unless I lose 40lbs. It's a horrible cycle! I've been going to the gym since November, cut out sugar (I'm beginning to believe I'm diabetic or borderline diabetic) and processed foods. I've been working on my weight since Jan 12' and have done nothing but maintain my weight. At least I haven't gained, but it DEFINITELY is not coming off!! 

We're discussing saving to pay out of pocket or find out what financing options we have, but I feel lost trying to figure that out too. I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. Literally.
