I was unable to take Pradaxa for the same reason. It got old having to get levels checked but I felt better knowing that I was being monitored. So glad I don't have to take it anymore!

I've gotten approval from insurance but I still need pass cardiac and vascular. Then I'll get a surgery date. Hopefully it'll be in a couple weeks.

Feeling discouraged..

I will have to lose 10% but will be on the 4 week optifast diet and they said that most end up losing more than the 10%. -
Have you smoked or vaped e-cigarettes and not had complications post surgery?
vanillayo replied to GemmaLicious's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I had a nurse tell me that they consider vaping as smoking and that I would have to stop. Then the surgeons nurse called and told me I would have to stop. I vape 6mg now and plan on going to 3mg and then to 0mg. I don't know if they test but I'm going to do what they say anyway. Don't want to mess up my chance to have the surgery!
