For those of you who were prescribed Zofran ODT' date=' did you have to get an insurance approval for it? My pharmacy is walgreen's and they are requiring pre-authorization from my doctors office and insurance. I'm guessing its expensive?![/quote']

Mine prescribed it and went to pharmacy and only paid $7

Looking for some advice here. I woke up yesterday with an insanely hurting wisdom tooth. Hurts to swallow' date=' can't open my mouth very wide, tooth kind of swollen. Having my surgery in 4 days. I WILL have this surgery. I'm concerned about this tooth though. Will this affect anything? I haven't been taking anything for it and I do have a dental appointment in a few weeks. This is making me nervous. Why does this have to happen now? Ugh :([/quote']

I had an abscess my surgery was may 24th and it was moved to June 19 they don't like TO operate when you have an infection. Plus its safer for you, teeth are serious

Wishing you well

Question here...I was sleeved on the 11th. Have had no major pain issues and having no problem with getting the fluids down. Doc fixed a hiatal hernia at the same time. Anyone else not having Fluid intake problems?

Its not the pharmacy who is requiring the PA, its your insurance. Your MD will have to submit medical necessity to your insurance. Should have no problem getting approved.

No fluid intake issues here. Especially Water. I definitely have restriction with broths but nothing uncomfortable because I stop quick.

Hi there I am on day 11 sleeved on the 6th and also had a hiatal hernia fixed. I am the same. Thankfully. I have had no problems getting things down. In fact it has made me feel like maybe they left my stomach too big. No major pain issues either. I think we must be very lucky.

I was thinking the same thing about my stomach. Guess I worry too much. Glad we and others are doing so well. Wish everyone could feel like I feel.

Ok so I ate some food yesterday for the first time. I feel so much better. Today I drank a carnation instant sf Breakfast drink with some soy milk and ate mashed potatoes twice today. I had a great day and even went for a walk. So believe that man cannot live on Water alone. I am so happy ready to go out and have a good day tomorrow. Tomorrow I may go to the beach and watch the sunset or may be go watch the sun rise on Wednesday. Never knew that food was such good fuel. I sound like a kid who drank a big cup of coffee. No caffeine here. Thank you God!!!!! I am myself again.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
