Feeling anxious
Butterbeanfly replied to Butterbeanfly's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Yes! I checked and then again! Think I have had a few too many surprises on this journey already. Best news is better hospital, cheaper cost. I have to pay 40% with no cap. -

Here's a funny thought. ..
Butterbeanfly replied to Limacina's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
At my recent pre-op nutrition seminar I got to hear a fellow pre-op discuss her awesome smoothie regimen. When questioned about her weight gain it turned out her smoothies were cherry slurpees and mcdonalds mango. But they were on sale! She exclaimed. Sigh. -
Just keep swimming.......

Thank you for sharing, I knew it would be a hard journey but I did not expect it to be so for these reasons! I am feeling a bit better, it's just a change of venue, right? . Will try to get it sorted today. -
I so I have been at this approval process since April. Regular gp visit. Seminar, bloodwork, EKG,endoscopy, psych exam and at least 5 trips @ 120 miles to clinic with time off work. Today I hear that the hospital is not considered center of excellence so I have to start again with new facility. I am heart broken. Anyone else have to start over and do your clearances carry to new doctors? I am not giving up but I am so down.

Thanks, I am having to reset my mind. I was sure the next call would be scheduling. I found a place it's farther away still but maybe I can transfer in my records and shorten things up a bit. I also had an earlier setback learning my insurance only covers 60% with no out of pocket cap. -

New girl in need of friends!
Butterbeanfly replied to KirstyK25's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am in the waiting boat too! I started in April with my GP and have been to several nutrition visits, surgeon consult, endoscopy and psychological testing. I think they were able to submit to my insurance last week so the waiting is killing me. Next if approved will be another nutrition visit and then surgery date. Maybe another surgeon visit not sure. I hope for September ! -
