April Dates



Recommended Posts

Honestly' date=' I probably haven't been waiting very long.I started the process in mid January and had first official visit in February to the surgeon. Everything was turned in on the 14th of March, but Dr. office didn't open up a case with the insurance company until the 22nd of March. They have 15 days to deny or approve.

It's like watching a pot boil....it just seems to take so much longer. I am just so ready to get a date on the calendar. I feel like everything else is on hold until I have a date..[/quote']

I had my first appointment in January and after psych clearance and seeing the nut they requested auth from the ins. I was notified of the approval in mid Feb. I was hoping for a march date, but the earliest open slot for the surgery was 4/8.

Woke up this morning with a sore throat. For the last two months, I have bee sick on and off. A cold front came in last night so I imagine that's why my throat is sore.... do you think I will have to push back my surgery?

I didn't need the PFT for clearance i had to go to the pulm. Because of the nodule on my lung

Yea I definitely understand that. I just meant they will be able to figure it out from the pft.

Good luck to all new surgeries today and good headings thoughts for all of the new people sitting on the losers bench! Surgery in 5 days!! Had pre-op yesterday. All is good and I lost 12lbs on my liquid diet over the past 2 weeks! It is VERY manageable and when you keep looking forward to what our goals are, it makes it easier. It is also a great help seeing everyone else that is on the same journey. Stay strong and keep strong. WE can do it!

      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.
