My insurance papers have been submitted for approval, and I'm on pins and needles. I'm hoping that I get approved very nervous. Anticipated surgery date for revision is December 18, 2014.

Update 7 weeks post op
ready4changein2011 replied to A. Stoot's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Glad to here and congrats. I'm pending approval for lap band to sleeve revision and I glad that I won't have to deal with being stuck again. -
In my opinion set a stop date and quit. If you can do it cold turkey, then maybe try an alternative. I quit 13 months ago cold turkey and it was the best thing that I could have ever done. No withdrawals. Good luck to you.

Insurance denial
ready4changein2011 replied to cryssyd3's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't know but with my band I was 1st letter approval. lets see if it happens with my revision too. I feel like you I have Aetna this time. I had united with the band. Good luck -
EGD and nutritional consult done now I'm just waitng for insurance approval. My surgery will be an all-in-one that's just what I prayed for.

I quit cold turkey last year September. It actually takes around three to seven days for the nicotine to not show up in blood. My friend quit 7 days before labs and he was clear. -

Lapband to sleeve revision on Dec 18, 2014, if Aetna approves. I'm in Pasadena tx. Good luck all.

Any December Sleevers
ready4changein2011 replied to Pepper123's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
My anticipated date is Dec 18th by Dr. Alanis in Texas. I am revising from band to sleeve. Good luck all. -
I'm shooting for a December date for revision band to sleeve. I lost around 50 lbs and most of the weight is back even with compliance and fills. I have been having follow- ups every month since banding I'm in debt. My new physician says that he does not do bands anymore because the success rate is poor. Then there is chance for slippage and erosion the longer the band remains inside. My qualifications for sleeve are only EGD and nutrition consult then submit, and I have an appointment for both this week wed and Fri. Good luck with whatever surgery everyone chooses.
