anyone from SW Iowa??

I am almost done with the process of getting things done before they can submit to the insurance company for approval. I was looking for people who are from the sw Iowa area. Seems most on this forum are from the des moines area.

I'm from NW Iowa--close but no cigar! Good luck finding someone. I do feel a bit isolated up here. Sally

Hi Cindy, I live in Council Bluffs. I had my surgery 1 yr ago Jan 4th. If you have any questions please feel freel to ask. I had Dr Rogers do my surgery at Mercy Hosp, is that your doctor? If it is, he is really awesome! Barb

yes, Dr Rogers is my Dr too. I really like him. He seems very intelligent and tells you how it is. I have just finished my psych eval last week and now they can fax everything to my insurance company and we will see what happens. I have an appointment with Dr Rogers on wednesday to discuss my endoscopy results. Im glad to have found someone in CB who has gone thru it. Do you attend the support group meetings?

Hey Cindy, I wasn't sure if you got my last email. I just hit reply and sent it. How did you appointment go Wednesday? After they submitted all my info to the insurance company it took about 3 weeks to get approval. I haven't been to a support meeting in a while. Are you going to them? Wow, last year at this time I was on my liquid diet !

I am from sw iowa getting dates set to have lapband surgery in mexico. Then will do fills in usa.
