Gastric Sleeve Surgery Approval Letter In Hand!



Recommended Posts

I received the official pre-approval letter!! It's all so real and so close.

Last night I dreamed I was at a friend's house waiting to go to the hospital for surgery and was doing all kinds of stuff to kill time when I realized it was almost 10:30 and my surgery was at 10:30 and I was supposed to be at the hospital at 8:30 to prep for surgery! Crazy- and the friend whose house I was at doesn't live where my surgery is- she's 3hrs in the opposite direction! I blame the cold meds...

LMPRAO!!!! now that is funny!

ive only had 1 dream so far & it was that i woke up from surgery with no pain at all & my mom kept saying i had it done so i went home & finally checked and i had little tiny needle sized dots of blood on my gall bladder incisions & my mom finally admitted that they didnt do it & i had to wait til 2 more weeks to do it.

      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.
