Insurance Approved Surgery!
Nita1019 replied to Nita1019's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well my doc office called Friday to set up the date. I will have mt sx on Aug 13th. I can't wait! Little nervous cause it is set in stone now! I was talking to my mom last night ans said " get everything in order cause you only have 3 weekends to get everything in order"! That was a huge wake up call on how soon it will be! Now I have so many small questions. -
I have this app! I am going to friend everyone on this tread! The more support I get the better I do! Thanks everyone!

I will most def update. The hospital i am having surgery at has a weight loss program and i have been in touch with the head lady on and off since a yr ago. I asked her what to expect and she daid i would go over food with dietician and do weight measurements and the over to doc and his PA and he does a full exam. History and other things Go over options ask ask questions. And then my insurance will be requested and go from there. I am excited and nervous at the same time.
-
I have my first appointment Wednesday. Said would take 2 hrs. I am very nervous. That wont set date till ins is approved. I hope that doesn't take to long.

My best friend told me last night she did not know why I waned the surgery. If I apply my self I can get the same results. I was really upset I did not get her support. She is very over weight and she knows the health problems that this surgery could help. I feel that I can't talk to her about this and she and this are a huge part of my life how do I not talk to her about it?
-
Lol probably. We do always make fat reference about each other tigether. Oh well!
-
It will work out the way it is suppose to! It will still happen!
-
She will get over it!
-
I am way to impatience to wait. I would have known the insurance persona whole family names and for all of them by now.
-
No they just ask if your reg pcp is on board cause they will need to know you had sx and also keep up with anymeds if you are in any. Every thing medically changes. Call your insurance and see jf it was approved you should know from your surgeons off by now

If u can stop I would. I am 30 days smoke free and i feel 100% better aready!
-
Now every doc is different so ask!!!!!!!!
-
Oh my gosh Lynn u are so right. I am now 30 days smoke free and I know I can never start back up. I don't want to be diabetic with high blood pressure killing me faster. I want to live longer. I have been fat pretty much forever I don't care about that appearance ( which of course it is a plus) it is the health issues that will resolve. That is the main reason I am doing it. I went into huge depression last time I was working for this and the new insurance did not cover it. All I could think was that how many years they are taking from me for not covering this procedure. It was really hard to swallow!

Help! I Am Having Gorging Problems!
Nita1019 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I know i am meeting the doc for the first appointment to vet started with the surgery July 11th. But i am eating EVERYTHING in site. And lots of it. I need to get a better handle on this. It is like i feel that i know i won't be able to do this later. This isn't any kinda self control! Did anyone else do this? I have prob put on 10lbs in the last mth -
Help! I Am Having Gorging Problems!
Nita1019 replied to Nita1019's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Saturday was the worse. If I keep this up I will be 20-30 lbs before my sx date. I need to start back my protine shakes for breakfast it helped me maintain. -
It is sad but I just haven't talked to her about it. She is doing this group with church called running for God. I work for orthoaepidic docs so she was asking about support for her ankles. I gave her info and told her I was proud of her for doing it. I have supported her in even the worst of decisions. I have always told her I may not like it but I would be there for her with any thing. I know she will be ok with it because it will happen. I told her we I needed her to keep me accountable before to keep me working out. She said she would. We will see. My husband and family are 100% for it. That keeps me 100% positive.

Thank you so much for that! I needed to know I am not the only one. Good luck with July the 11th. Can I ask why you were denied? -
I just got the phone call from my surgeons office. I am set up for my first appointment to see Dr Hata. July11th.

My surgeon will not so surgery unless you are 100% smoke free foe 90 days. He test u when u go in the hospital and if you have nicotine in your system he will send you home the day of surgery. I have been smoke free for 27 days now. I have been an on and off smoker for years. I quite cold turkey. Having mouth fixation problems this time around but it is worth it. I am not passing this up for a smoke.

Yey!! I can't wait to post the same thing!!! We are with you!!! SO EXCITING!!
