I just got word from BCBS that I've won my appeal! I am so excited and happy that I can finally get rid of this worthless band. Thank you God, you are awesome!

YAY!! I had the same thing, had the band, failed me, denied me, then I appealed and won. Very happy with my bypass!!!

Good riddance to your crapband! What issues were you having?

246 in Dec 2008 before banded 1/28/09 at 215 lbs, band crapped 9/09 at 170 lbs and struggled with it and regained to 203 revised to bypass on 8/1/11 and am very happy.

I was throwing up constantly from food getting stuck and pain in the port area. Let's just say that try not to eat in public. Needless to say, I didn't lose much weight so I was suffering for nothing. I'm so happy that my nightmare is over.

I have federal BCBC. I started the appeal process in December so it took a while but it'll be well worth the wait.
