I am trying to have laparscopic gastric bypass surgery with Dr. Rutledge in N. Carolina and have been denied. I have heard of many others who were denied then approved. Don't give up! I am from MI and several of us here are pulling together and fighting this. If your interested in having the surgery done laparscopically, go to : www.clos.net There is a lot of info there. Bonnie
