How is Julie Doing? I am very curious ,I have an appointment on Aug 24th with Dr Hruska and my surgery should be about 2 Weeks after that. So I am very interested in how Julie is doing and what she is going thru.That way I kind of know what to expect.Cause I am beginning to get really nervous .And I am what you call a nervous eater and that is very hard when you are on a pre-op diet. So please tell Julie I am Praying for her and hope everything is going well. Thanks!! Tammy

Hi Tammy, It is my first appointment with her. My insurance will not pay for the surgery because it is excluded. I have appealed twice so far, and the only thing I can do now is arbitration. I have some kind of health saving plan that I just enrolled in and it is supposed to have some kind of contract to where they have a specific contracted price that you pay for certain procedures. I don't know what the price is yet because they have to contact the doctor and the hospital and then they let you know. All I know is that it is lower that the $20,000.00 it would be without it. Time will tell. I want to have the lap band surgery with her. If my insurance would cover it i would have RNY, but they won't. I have gone through all the testing at Vanderbilt in Nashville last year, so I can use those results and don't have to do them again I think. From what I have heard she is a really good doctor. Best of luck with your appointment. Have you had all your testing? I guess you already know your insurance will cover it, huh. Nicky

Hi Nicky, Yes, I have had all of my testing done.I am on my pre-op diet now I am hoping to get a date when I go back. If it wasn't for my insurance covering it I would not be able to have the surgery. I hope everything turns out good for you, and thanks for all the updates on Julie. Tammy
