Playing With My Life



Recommended Posts

I had a very busy day today not time to really think so now my day is done and I'm laying here thinking. I go for the last part of my phsyic eval tomorrow I not worried I think I will pass it. Nov 12 is my last appt befor we send every thing in for approval. We do everything they tell us to do jump threw ever hoop they put in place (and its worth it) but at the end of the day they can still say NO. This is really nagging at me. I have high blood pressure had a mild heart attack in July hurt my back 3yrs ago now I walk with a walker. SMH I need my life back and they hold all the card.

I really really understand what you are feeling right now, I did finally get approved, but hoops I jumped. And never felt so out of control of anything ever. They do have all the power, But sounds to me you have the reasons one would need for this surgery. Praying that you get approved quickly and you can get your life back. I want mine back too. Just wanted you to know that I truly understand how you are feeling. Please try to replace that feeling with HOPE. HOPE the most powerful thing there is to me. and I have HOPE for us all.

      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.
