Thanks you guys!!!
Hello guys I just wanted to let yall know that I love all the great advice yall give. It has really motivated me. I had contiplated surgery for some time but I was too chicken! My friend recommended this site and a lot of my questions were answered. I finally went to my pcp and my dr is all for it, she made me an appt for the lipid tests. All I need is to find a surgeon. I don't know if it's my insurance plan, but I can'f find a surgeon near palm beach that takes Avmed insurance with the state. If anyone knows of a surgeon will you please let me know
I don't know if I should call my insurance and ask them or if I should wait to see what my Dr. says please help me.

Your doctor should be able to recommend a few surgeons in your area that do the surgery, there are several in S. Florida. I didnt have luck when I contacted the insurance company, but maybe Avmed is different. If you can\'t get any names, I would suggest you go to the main Florida page on here and look at the surgeon listing yjrtr and then start making calls or visiting websites for more info. Good luck to you and congrats on already having your PCP\\\'s support.
