How Much Was Your Surgery?

Where do you find out the information? I can not find information anywhere about places that offer self pay. -
My Insurance Will Only Cover A Dr 126 Miles Away.
I am done mooing! replied to I am done mooing!'s topic in Insurance & Financing
It just annoys me that I have 8 hospitals in a 1/2 hour radius of my house that perform the surgery. Most of them are centers of excellence which is a requirement of my insurance, but I have to use a hospital 126 miles away. -
My Insurance Will Only Cover A Dr 126 Miles Away.
I am done mooing! posted a topic in Insurance & Financing
I am not rich, I don't have the money to drive out to cooperstown all the time. That's 126 miles EACH DIRECTION! I don't even know if my car will make it that far. That is my ONLY option though because I can't afford to pay out of pocket. I really just want to give up and go crawl in a hole. This is bs. -
Byetta? Has Anyone Used It?
I am done mooing! replied to I am done mooing!'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No nausea yet and I have gained 2 pounds, but my sugar is getting lower :-) Would rather have the weight loss though. Maybe when I go up to the 10 unit dose. Right now I am still on the 5 unit dose. -
Byetta? Has Anyone Used It?
I am done mooing! replied to I am done mooing!'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I currently take 100 units of Humalog 3x a day, 120 units of Levamir once a day, 10mg of Glucophage once a day and now the Byetta twice a day. Here's hoping that it will work a little :-) -
Byetta? Has Anyone Used It?

My dr put me on Byetta today. He said that it will help me lose weight while I am waiting on my insurance to pull their heads out of their anus. Has anyone else used this before? They said that it will make me nauseous for a few weeks but that it's normal. -

Weight Loss Surgery Stigma
I am done mooing! replied to StrangelyNormal's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My family is not supportive at all. They tell me that I am just enabling my disgusting-ness and that if I really wanted it I would do it myself. I know all about stigma's. Grrr. -

Suggestions On Taking B12
I am done mooing! replied to Melissa Attwood Sturgill's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Why does it have to go under the tongue? I have been taking it for months because it helps with energy, and I just chew it. They are the cherry ones from Wal-Mart. I didn't know they were supposed to go under the tongue until I read it on here a few days ago lol. -

Nsv! Feel Like I'm On Cloud 9!
I am done mooing! replied to diochick's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That's on my list too :-) I have not let myself go to an amusement park EVER because I don't want the embarrassment of being too fat for the rides. The guy that I am with has mentioned going to Disney World for our honeymoon. I feel like that may now be an option! -

What If Your Dr Doesn't Want To Do The Sleeve?
I am done mooing! replied to I am done mooing!'s topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My insurance has approved the sleeve. My bestie is having an issue with her surgeon because she wants the sleeve and he wants her to have the bypass. I just couldn't imagine if my dr told me that because after researching, studying and waiting for this for 8 years I will be furious if my dr looked at me and said he didn't think I would be a good fit for the sleeve. That's why I have been wondering how often that has actually happened. -

What If Your Dr Doesn't Want To Do The Sleeve?
I am done mooing! posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What if after going thru everything, my surgeon tells me that he doesn't feel that the sleeve is for me and wants me to go for the gastric bypass. Has anyone ever had this happen? How did you convince your surgeon that the sleeve is what you want? I have NO interest in the gastric bypass. I don't want my insides to be cut apart and re-routed, etc. I have been diabetic my whole life, I would like to eat a cookie some day with out being punished for it by either a needle or a toilet. I have been told over and over that I am too large for the band. I feel that my ONLY option is the sleeve. I haven't seen my surgeon yet, I am just scared that he is going to tell me that he will only do the bypass -
I didn't know they made them with carbonation That stinks.

Yesterday and today I just can't stop munching. I am very worried about this AFTER the sleeve. I need to learn to control the munching. Ugh. What tips do you guys have to help control a case of the munchies?!?
