Hi, I have two more appointments one with my nut, and one at the sleep center both in July. Then I go back to the Bariatric surgeon, but then what more do I need to do? I have done everything they said in in 6 mo. What will be next? Thanks for the help

It depends on what your insurance company and your surgeon requires (and it is slightly different for everyone).

If you have met all the pre-requisites, the next step is likely to be the surgeon's office submitting all the paperwork to the insurance company to get approval.

Once you have a surgery date, you will need to have a good bit of lab work done and an EKG. At least that's what I needed. It was done at the hospital the week before surgery.

I needed a stress test on a treadmill and a psychologist referral.
