Question:
I need help paying for my surgery

I currently have a lap band that I got when I had insurance. I have lost bout 60lbs since my surgry, but I have a lot more to go...the lap band only works for so much for me, but I'm trying to control my diabetes, and now my knees are starting to hurt. I was trying to find out if there are any dr.s who are willing to do a bypass on a patient with limited income.    — erik (posted on April 26, 2009)

I do not have a direct answer for you but rather more questions, which I hope may help your situation. Are U eligible for any form of Medicaid or Medicare? If your credit score is decent you may be eligible for a medical loan. In the worse case scenario you may have to sell items you own that you really don't need or want as a means to raise the money??? I wish I have a better answer to offer you. The best of luck.
