I don't use "spas" but I get great massages in privacy of my own home from Pat on the Back Mobile Massage.  Phone is 702-369-4551 or www.patonthebackspa.com.

They would probably come to your hotel room as well.

Patti,
You might consider either Massage Envy (one at Lake Mead near the 95) or Euphoria (many of them but I like Rampart at Charleston.

Happy birthday to you!

I have United Healthcare and had no problems.  I called them before I started the process; they wanted 6 months of documented physician supervised effort at weight loss, a BMI >40, a visit with a nutritionist, a psych visit (neither of which they pay for).  I do (did) have high blood pressure and took a med for that, otherwise, I was just on the edge for co-morbidities -- diabetes, etc. and would have gone there soon without the surgery.  My surgeon asked for a letter in writing from the insurance company as far as their pre-op requirements, which they would not do, but I just took notes and made sure I wrote down every detail they told me as far as the requirements.  It all went smoothly.  The only caution:  they won't pay for any labs ordered by the surgeon, only by your medical doctor (just like they won't pay for the nut or psych).

What is VSG? I am also going through Western Bariatric Institute. I went to the seminar on Tuesday and have begun my weight loss surgery journey. I had my psych eval today and my nutrition eval is on Friday. Sarai called me on Thursday to schedule my initial consultation but I missed the call and e-mailed her back about it...so just waitin to hear from her. Have you had your initial yet and how far along in the process are you?

I am so excited for tomorrow.  I unfortunately will not be able to attend the support meeting on the 29th because my boss is sending me to a retreat for work.  If they discuss new members please let them know that I will be there next time.  Thanks so much for your support.
