sorry if this comes through twice my comp just did something weird. anyways i cant believe your insurance said that. esp because all your conditons are probably related to your weight. i would appeal this AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! it doesnt sound fair at all to me. luckily i have state insurance where everything is free BUT they make me do 6 month dietician visits and my bmi is also 50. i would really try to fight this case as much as you can. ive always heard that you get approved faster esp if you do have pre exisiting conditions. ill pray for you grl!!!

hiiii. im so sorry! i bet you are dissapointed but it will go by very fast. if you dont mind me asking, where are you from and what insurance do you have? what qualifies are pre exisiting condition and did your surgeon or insurance tell u about this before???

trust me it goes b y wicked fast. i have my dietician appt aug 21st then the last one september 5th. i cut it close BUT my insurance said as long as their 6 months consecutively its fine. i am nervous about the approval but i have state insurance and my bmi is 50. my surgeon said iwill definatly be approved it goes by VERY VERY fast. i started my journey in april and im almost there! i go to the gym every other day and i also have a 2 year old and full time job to keep me busy and keep my mind off of things. good luck to you and it will be greatttt!

wow im glad i found this post. this runs in my family and unfortunately its been something i struggle with all my life. my mom actually introduced me to the electrolosis. it worked for her. not for me. she ended up BURNING my face. so i just went back to shaving EWW everyday, i recently broke out with ingrown hairs and decided to go with threading. until my face clears up then ill be starting the threading. laser sounds 2 expensive and my doctor wants me to get blood work done for PCOS before presribing vaniqua thanks for posting!!

Newley Sleeved 4 Days Post Op
FDclerical replied to VerticalMorey's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
ive also read on here that the gas medicine given to babies helps alot!! maybe try that -
hmm that i dont know. you may try google for that one but honestly when i went i just breathed in a machine a bunch of times. took a break then did it again. they printed my results and said my clearance was all set! i was honest and up front about the smoking and they understand it is hard to quit. also after meeting with my surgeon last week he sai as long as im clear a full month before and after surgey i should be ok. (which is why i didnt go for the bypass. if you get bypass and ur still smoking you will get ulcers) i plan on quitting for good but just in case i slip up

if it was dumping youd be on the toilet and in pain. it comes and goes but youd def know. i havent even had surgery yet but from changing my habits i get it just from eating clam chowder.

hey! i took the pulmonary exam and they never specified u need to be smoke free.i am a smoker and i passed the test with flying colors. the pulmonolgist is a test to see how strong your lungs are. he DOES reccommend that you quit smoking 3 months BEFORE your surgery date and he WILL put that on your paperwork. i personally was just prescribed chantix to quit so at least my insurance and surgeon will see that im consitently taking it before my surgery date. hope that helps
