Should of said it was old water from water cooler hehe i added ice after!

CALL and BE PUSHY! I had to do the same thing with my psych consult they eventually release my report to the doc office but they took there sweet time doing so, said it was because my insurance still had been billed for the appt. Not my problem! But she eventually gave my report over to the office after a few calls from me and them but wasted a good wk and half sitting on it. so I say Call and be pushy you have waited and did your part now they need and should do theres!

I just bought the UNJURY STARTER Kit online to try out there protein. Anyone use this? How do you like it? Good? Bad? In between? have amonth before surgery and Im very clueless in theprotein department!!! HELP!

Good luck to u both! lots of prayers and well wishes being sent ur way

Amen!

Ive been able to put it off for two months, now surgery date is getting closer Im wks away instead of months. 18 days to go. Everytime I think about whats to come I cry!

I was on the pill for years until Aug. I have been off it since mid Aug. So I can have Surgery in Nov. I know its a bit early but I didnt want to have to refill a script so I just ended it then. I was hoping to be able to go back on to the pill after 6 wks when Dr says ok. Anyone else on the pill still with VSG? or did you have to switch completely? I tried NuvaRing before and hated it. Thanks!

After surgery doctor says I will need to inject myself one a day for 2 wks with Lovenox to prevent blood clots, anyone else have to do something like this? Im kinda scared about having to inject myself.

So glad you are okay and doing well! Thank you for posting your story and for not being afraid to post it and share it with all of us! God has def been on yourside and blessed you, you have lots of angels looking out for you xo

Thats wonderful SUZI! Congrats, Keep your head up sister!

You look amazing!

Def go to the seminar, you will get so much information and questions answered there, every dr and every insurance company wants different things from us. I went to a seminar, had a consult with my surgeon, and my insurance company wanted 6 months of medically supervised diet I started that in Feb finished that in Aug, they also wanted a psych eval done I did that in July. Everything was finished by my last dietitian appointment in Aug and sent in to the insurance company for approval! Took them about 2 wks to approve it and they did! if you have sleep apnea or need a sleep study the doc will make u get one. and maybe and upper gi too. At pre admission testing which I just had on Monday I had to have an ekg done blood work done and a breathing test done to make sure I was ok to go under. But def dont be afraid to ask questions everyone here is always willing to answer! Best of luck to you sweetie!

I like the idea of a surgery center for outpatient procedures, however I do not feel this is yet an outpateint procedure and should be done in a hosptial with at least a 1 or 2 night stay in the hospital so they can monitor you and make sure you are well enough to go home.

Thank you everyone for alll the info! I didnt know about this at all until my appt Monday and now I do! So thank you sooo soo much!

I liked it sweetie and will follow you fell in love with your story and read it out loud to my bf and bawled best of luck to you <3
