What Was Your Final "straw That Broke The Camels Back"
laurenella82 replied to bigjoe102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
First, my brother expressed his concern for my weight and wanting me to be there for his daughter (this was before I had my son) who is now 4 and I am her only auntie. Second, my son who is now three, needs me. I am his only parent and I would hate to leave him alone over something I could have prevented. Third, I went on a day trip to Florida (from DC) to get my niece and I had to take 4 different planes. The first and I had no problems with the seatbelt. But the other three I needed extenders and it was extremely embarrassing to have to reach over the people next to me (I always fly the window seat) to ask for it then to get it. I've been researching WLS for about 7 years and started the process 5 years ago but decided not to go through with it. I didn't know about VSG then. I'm so glad I waited and I can't wait to finally have my surgery!!! ( the fact that I'll probably like shopping for myself again is a HUGE plus too!!) -

Amerihealth Nj - Does Anyone Know The Requirements?
laurenella82 replied to SandeeD's topic in Insurance & Financing
What PhicDiva posted are the basics. All the other stuff will probably depend on your medical history. Like I have a history of mitral valve regurgitation so I have to get another EKG. I have a history of swelling in my lower extremities and osteoarthritis so I have to get an ultrasound. If you don't have any co-morbidities then you may not have to do much else. I have Amerihealth but I'm in DC. I'm just praying I can have my surgery in February.
