Question:
Anyone gone thru TRC in Longview, TX?

I've recently joined this site & it has really given me a lot of info on WLS. My sister had it done last year & has lost 100lbs. I'm about 150lbs overweight, BMI:47, high cholestrol, & family history of heart problems. I was just wondering if anyone had used the local TRC office here. I had called there once & the person I spoke with was very rude. (She told me TRC didn't pay for WLS plus did I realize how much it cost?) Any way, going to try it one more time and just wanted to get some insight. Thanks, Robin    — Robin R. (posted on September 9, 2002)

They will pay, buuuutttt in addition to proving medical nessecity, you typically will have to prove that your wieght caused you to lose a job or is keeping you from getting one.
