    New to this site and disappointed

    The reality is THIS IS a form of WLS. The least invasive with the least complications. Take a peek at the duodenal switch site if you want to find complications!

    Couple Questions

    I'm still going through insurance hell right now and best thing I can tell you is make sure that you going to a hospital that your insurance covers 100% there were some hospitals that my insurance will only cover 50% of the procedure so I had to change hospitals I'm waiting for approval on Monday for my surgery on Wednesday. As far as fills go my doctor includes your first six fills in the program after that does Bill insurance form for my insurance only allows so many per year that something else you might want to check out

    Surgery Today !!! July 5

    Congratulations!!! Hope you are feeling well soon!
  21. Found out yesterday that the hospital I was scheduled for surgery at is not covered 100% by my insurance. We had to reschedule my surgery a day earlier at a different hospital! We have not yet confirmed availability at the new location so I am on pins and needles waiting for tomorrow morning to see if the hospital has an available surgery opening on the 10th! Staying on my pre op diet and keeping my fingers crossed.
