So Frustrated



Recommended Posts

Hello,

So I am currently in my 6 month diet classes in order to get the sleeve with United Healthcare in CA. I just found out that my dads insurance, which I am covered under till im 26, expires on Jan. 31st. I called my medical group which requires all of these steps and they said that they could not help me out and that these classes i am taking only count for their medical group not anyone else. I decided to change medical groups hoping that this other one does not require as much, but i cant get it till jan. 1st. I have thought about going to Mexicali to see Dr. Aceves and just pay for the surgery but i am not sure yet. if i do get my own insurance, then i have to pay my premium, plus my yearly max, plus my co pay for the surgery which pretty much eaquals surgery in Mexicali. I also thought about medi-cal (aka medicaid ) but then i would be starting all over again with finding a dr that would refer me. I already had trouble when i saw my first pcp and then had to search for a different pcp. I feel like i am running in place with this process and i am getting very discouraged. Anyone have tips on this or what i should do?

Now I had my surgery in Tijuana and had it booked in three weeks. The absolute best thing I could have done. So, in asking me, I say, if you can afford Mexico go, you will not regret it.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
