OMG......Approved and Nervous



Recommended Posts

Okay I was nervous waiting for approval and 2 of my good friends one who had the sleeve herself said call them, bug the heck out of the insurance company, well I called and I was approved 30 mins ago and now I am really nervous as all get out. I have BCBS of IL insurance, I got approval and did all the requirements done in less than a month about 3 weeks really. I am stoked and nervous for real now......

Im from Louisville! Congrat on your acceptance! Would love to hear how it goes. Do you have a surgery date? I have CIGNA, and have been told they approve quickly (at least through the plan my company has). I can wait for my papers to be submitted!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
