My sleeve surgery date is June 16th, 2010. I expected a huge fight from BCBS, but only one denial and within 10 days, the appeal and and approval. I'm currently 328 lbs and suffer from tendonitis in the feet, sleep apnea, high BP, insulin resistence, incontinence, muscle aches and pains and asthma. I'm constantly in pain when walking. I'm tired when walking from the parking lot to my classroom!
I'm excited and scared at the same time. I don't want to have to have the surgery, but know I must to be healthy. I went to the surgeon in April and was told to eat a modified Atkins diet until we got he approval. I just can't make myself start... I'm having such a hard time... I hope there is someone else out there that had this problem and has been successful after surger. I'm really starting to wonder if I will be...
HELP!
