Hey everyone, I am currently trying to go through True Results Hiatal Hernia Program. I went to my free consultation 2/20/15 where they gave me a physical, and lung test, and I also did blood work. I was told that after my blood work results came back they would contact me to schedule a ECG to check for a hernia. I know they have received my blood tests results because I called & they told me they did & that a nurse would call me back but they still haven't. I'm still nervous I won't have a hernia & won't be able to afford the surgery which I so badly need & want. I know that I have high cholesterol & my liver enzymes are elevated as well due to my weight. Has anyone else out there gone through True Results Hernia Program? If so, how was your experience & how fast was the process to finally get surgery? Thanks!

Just try to relax, once they get your blood work, they send it to the surgeons office & they get your file together. You are probably going to have surgery in late June or July. They schedule it really fast! You can always email your advocate for updates, mine always replied b/c I was bugging the crap out of her lol

Yoyo, if took about a month be very patient! Don't worry you WILL have a hernia & even if you don't they will say you do so that your insurance pays for the hernia repair & then you pay for the sleeve out of pocket.

Operation skinny- yay! So happy for you! ????????

_marshmallow_ Don't worry you will have a hernia! I'm recovering right now from surgery, I'm 2 days out. Email me if you want to keep in touch. jmar972@yahoo.com

Operationskinny2k15- Hey! I actually had my surgery scheduled for last month but had to reschedule due to a stomache infection, and so now I'm having surgery on May 27th. Do not worry, you will have a hernia just like I did. I am excited but scared to start my new life. Today is my birthday, and the surgery is a big birthday present to myself from God. <3 If you want to email me or have any questions just shoot me an email at jmar972@yahoo.com

Carlito, I won't know until April 2nd.

Leo, thanks so much for the info. I really hope they find at least a tiny hernia so that I can afford the surgery.

Leo, so they let you finance the EDG with the surgery too? That's what they told me they were going to do with mine. Just wanted to make sure b/c I don't have the money to pay up front when I get my EDG.

Amber, the hospital told me its financed with the $3,500. But I guess I will find out when I go on the 2nd. I really hope I don't have to pay my deductible b/c its $500. ????

Leo, what's an unfill? Did you have to pay anything when you got your EDG? Or is that included in the $3,500? Also, did they tell you right away if you had a hernia? I'm so worried and stressed I can't even sleep. I wish I knew for sure if I have one.

So after your EDG you had your pre op with your doctor? And no I do not take anything or have acid reflux that's why I'm worried.

Amber did you end up having a hernia? And how long after the EDG did they let you know if you did or didn't have one?

PlanoMom, I am in the same boat! I have my EGD on April 2nd! I am so scared I wont have a hernia! If I dont then I cant afford the surgery

UPDATE: EGD will be April 2nd to check if I have a hernia. Everyone please keep me in your prayers!

dtritt, I got a call yesterday with the dates from my advocate. EGD will be April 2nd, surgery April 13th! I'm still scared that I won't have a hernia. Are you going through the hernia program too?

Hi, how long did it take from your initial consultation to your EGD(I think thats what its called) to check for Hernia and for them to schedule to actual surgery? Im still waiting for a call back to schedule to check for hernia. Its going on a month now. Happy to hear your getting surgery! Are you going through the sleeve hernia program? Hope to hear from you soon!

Giggle, no I havent. I emailed my patient advocate that they assigned to me & she told me "We will call you to set this up once we have your clearance and can send your chart to the surgeon, this can take a few weeks." I just said ok thank you, I don't to bug her.

Tiff, I weight 260 and I'm 27 years old, my height is 5'3. I have slight high cholesterol & my liver enzymes are elevated whatever that means. ????

Wow the process was really quick for you! I hope I get a call back by next week. ???? Thank you!

JPG1110, How long was the total process for you? Including blood work, & the ECG?

I called & they told me they had received my blood work back & a nurse would call me back. It's been a week so far & still no call but yes the weather has been bad & I know they were closed one day this week. I didn't know they had a EGD scheduler, I think I'll do that, I'll wait until Monday at least. My advocate from True Results did tell me it takes a few weeks to call me after receiving my blood work. I am also scared once I schedule my EGD that they won't find a hernia, bcus that's the only way my insurance will cover most of the surgery.
