Susan went in today (Friday), thinking all was well per another "update" only to be told she had to pay $125 and to "check" on Thursday to see if the BCBS network-Chrias went through "for sure." Just wanted to warn you all. She wishes she had seen your post last night, Ellen! On the positive side, she's now down 87 pounds since March via Lap-Band. Fran
