I finally got approved for the lap band it only took Cigna 24hrs to approve it and I found out that I am getting it done on 03/17/2011!!!! I start my liquid diet on ...
That's great that your getting banded! I was banded on 1-21-2011 so I am 4
weeks and 3 day post op. the biggest piece of advise I can give anyone for
post op is to buy the Extra Strength chewable GAS-X pills. I was in so much
pain from Gas the put into your body it was horrible! and about 1 hour
After taking the Gas-X I was Feeling a million times better and the next
day I have no pain at all from the gas! I had my surgery on a Friday and I
was back at work Monday! GOOD LUCK! keep posting vidoes
I have Cigna also, out of Tennessee. How did you go about talking with your
insurance company. Did you meet with the doctor first, or get approved with
cigna before going to the doctore? I really want to get this done, but have
no idea where to even start :(
I got the lapband on the 27th of December 2011. and afterwards I had lots
of gas especially in upper shoulder blades. But its all worth it. Ive lost
27 lbs so far and getting a fill this Thursday.
