I was scheduled for March 18. My docs office submitted to my insurance (BCBSNC) and the insurance company immediately denied it because they said my docs hospital was not a blue "distinction" hospital. When I began this journey I specifically asked my insurance if the hospital was a distinction center and they told me they were. Also, my docs office confirmed this before my first visit. Now they say there is nothing I can do except find a blue distinction center. I'm hoping that I won't have to go through the entire process again. Looking on the bright side, I could possibly get an earlier surgery date.

Skim milk diet?

Yes skim milk as ur meal 3x/day and any sugar free or low calorie drink throughout day (Water,propel,crystal light. Ect). Not going to be easy. But apparently its really good at shrinking liver prior to surgery

      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!
