I had stomaphyx 2/1.  To my knowledge there are no insurance companies that pay so I'm not sure what approval you're waiting for.  I was the 2nd patient for my doctor...my results are not as good as I had hoped, but I will persevere.

so then what is theout of pocket cost for he surgery if it is not covered by insurance? Woul it be better to go with a VGB instead? I have heard that people who have had the VGB have actually lost more than 30lbs...and I know that it is actually covred by insurance.....
