I got the call this morning that my insurance has been approved and she has let the dr.'s office know!!! I'm just waiting on them to call me back to officially set my date. I'm hoping for May 16. This is so exciting and scary all at the same time. As soon as I seen her number come up on my phone my heart dropped! New me here I come!

My insurance received the paper work on Monday and I was approved on Thursday. They were very timely. I have united health care and have heard good things about their bariatric program and so far all has been true.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
