Hi all, After a very long process I'm finally close to getting my sleeve approved and scheduled. I am excited, but a little worried. I've never had any surgery before, however several years back I tried to have gallbladder surgery. I was advised that they were unable to intabate me due to a narrow passageway. Has anyone here had a similar issue but been able to have a successful surgery? If so, what did your doctors do and were you aware of the issue in advance? I've seen that overweight people having this issue not uncommon, but I have found nothing on how it is managed. Any insight is appreciated. Sent from my SM-G990U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi, For those of you who had your insurance approved to cover your surgery - did you have to pay your copay/coinsurance amount up front or was the part that you were responsible for billed to you after surgery? Sent from my SM-G990U using BariatricPal mobile app
