Maybe someone can answer this for me. Well I'm finishing up all the requirements that had to be completed for my insurance to cover surgery. My husband has to have back surgery soon and I know after my surgery I can't pick up my 2yr old for like a month and my husband can't for longer than that. So my question is does anyone know when everything will expire like the psych visit,seminar, 6 month weight class & dietician visits? I really didn't want to come this far to have do everything all over again but my husband needs his surgery first because of severe pain. I'm healthy and not in pain just overweight

I have gone through all of this pre op testing already twice. (Was denied twice by insurance) I was told I have to start over from scratch now because its been more than two years.

Sent with kindness and support for everyone's journey.

My surgery was November 15th, I am a stay at home mom to 3 girls, 6, 4, and at the time 20 months. I was picking the baby up by day 4 and driving by day 5 post op. So you may not be out of commission for a month. I believe most of it, minus the blood work is good for a year, but that would be a question your surgeon and or insurance customer service rep can answer.

Hope hubby's surgery goes well!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
