  1. Oh my Gosh!!! Jenn.. You so know what I am going through! I am home trying to recuperate from my surgery and am still hearing about the comments going on at work because I do have two very close friends there who are extremely supportive. I am contemplating filing an HR report against her at this point bc she should not be discussing my medical w/o my permission! I am so sorry you had to deal with this too! Why are people so shallow? We decide to do better for ourselves and they try to throw us under the bus!!! UGH!!!!

    Hugs to you <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

    Firstly, NOBODY should be discussing your personal business. You should definitely file a complaint. Water cooler gossip is one thing but she stepped way over the line. As for people like that outside of work, you just have to remind yourself it's their glitch not yours and don't waste your time even worrying about it. They aren't worth it!


  2. The next 8 weeks are going to be CRAZY for me. I have a psych eval, pulmonology eval, cardiac eval, nutrition class, pre-admissions testing at the hospital, and my surgical clearance appointment with my PCP. My insurance company is either thorough or they are making SURE I pay as many co-pays as possible to make sure I'm serious!!


  3. I've seen topics where members having surgery in the same month have kinda banded together to offer support and encouragement to one another. I think this is a wonderful idea' date=' and I'd like to see if there's anyone having surgery in March that would like to support one another.

    I have a tentative date for the second or third week in March. I have UHC through Georgia Pacific and they use BRS for approvals. I don't expect any delays, nor does my surgeon's office, so she saved me a spot, so to speak, lol.

    Tonight I have my psyc eval, and Monday is my information class, I have two more visits, 2/5 and 3/5 of my six month supervised diet, and on March 5th when I leave my PCP's office, I'll take my worksheet to the surgeon and we'll submit to insurance. That's where I'm at!

    I'd love to talk with others that are looking at the same time frame as me!! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />[/quote']

    My surgery is March 21st. I'm excited but also a bundle of nerves!!!!
