As many of you know most insurances will no longer cover the cost of the bariatrics surgery. For me I have tried everything to take weight off nothing has worked I just gain back eveything I lost and then some. I am at a point now its the surgery or suffer some very bad physical problems I have been turned down for a loan for the surgery. Does anyone know of any Gov. grants or organizations that help in this area… im finding the Lapband runs about -8 thousand and the bariatric about ,000 ….Thanks bgaroo
