My husband just changed jobs and we have moved from CO to IL. I have been researching and preparing myself for surgery for almost 2 years. With my husbands insurance in CO I did not have to have the 6 month pre-op diet but now in IL his insurance is requiring it. I meet all of the other qualifications for approval just have to do the 6 months. I am so bummed. I was hoping to get the sleeve done ASAP I am so bad at waiting!!! Aaahhhh! Any words of encouragement?? Or any ways around the 6 month requirement...
