Vicki Platt 5 Posted July 15, 2013 I am 3.5 days post-op heading home!!! I did end up with a shocker when I woke up from surgery I ended up with a gastric sleeve due to my liver being too fatty and this was a safer option but they made the poach the smallest banana they could...just cant wait to get home Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KellyLessBelly 31 Posted July 15, 2013 Just got approved yesterday' date=' finally! It feels so much less stressful, knowing that I am really, seriously approved. I guess the third time (submitting documents to my insurance) was the charm No more insurance battles! I was originally hoping for a May surgery date, then I was postponed to June, & now July. The scheduler is going to call me on Weds with my date. Really, really hoping for a July date. If she says August, I think I might have to scream![/quote'] Finally scheduled for July 31st! Only have to do a 2 day liquid diet and go to a pre-op appointment the day before surgery. I do need some labwork done the week before, but that's it!!!

Did you sign papers for him to do a different procedure than what you signed up for? If not, that seems a bit fraudulent. I would gather most docs would have sewed you back up and made you wait until the liver shrank. I'm kinda shocked. I bet you were to! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vicki Platt 5 Posted July 15, 2013 Ok it was the best choice for my body and for my life. I didnt tell anyone this so that I would cause an uproar . I told u so that you could see that the drs really do have the best interests in heart . So I can live with this decision. I want you to trust your drs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want you to trust your drs I guess that's a good attitude to have but if I had woken to an irreversible surgery I didn't sign up for I'd be pissed! Best of luck with your sleeve! I hope it works wonderfully for you! Get better soon! 1 mzshay35 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
