Topic: RE: Hello I'm new
Actually I think its more along the lines that no one hardly checks this board. You might pop over to the Main board or what ever surgery type your having board. They are usually moving a lot faster with more people. You could also do a peer search to find people in your area that have had the surgery. Lastly you can do a surgeon search to see what surgeons in your area are listed on Obesity help. What would you liked to know? You posted above that you wanted to know if its ok and safe? I am not sure how to answer the "is it ok" part but the safe part I would have to say YES! Sure there are complications that can happen but if you do your research you can be prepared for just about anything that comes your way. Do you know what type of surgery you are wanting to have? Have you contacted your local Weight Loss Surgery clinic? How far into the process are you? Best Wishes to you! I am sure you will do just fine on your weight loss surgery journey! Felicia =0)

I'm Bobbie, 53 years old and scared. I weight 339 and was told today that I need to have the bypass surgery. Would someone please tell me it's ok and that it's safe? I am so scared. B

Topic: RE: Not Covered... Now What?!?!
Do you qualify for any of the financial aide programs that some hospitals offer? They may not cover it all but could take off quite a bit of it if you qualify. Good Luck and Best Wishes! Felicia =0)
