Cross fingers and toes that Tricare

will start paying for Lapband. I will call on Monday to see if banding is included in the change of mind.

Hey Donna, From what I have read, Tricare seems pretty easy to work with. Good luck with your phone call. I can't see why they wouldn't want to do Lapbanding instead of RNY, the cost is substantially less. I hope you get good news from Tricare. Let me know! I have also posted on Jawad's forum and have seen your messages there. Good luck! Limarie
