:( that sounds frustrating. I called my patient advocate two weeks ago to make sure everything is in order to submit to insurance. I dont want any surprises. She's not returning my calls or msgs!!

I understand completely...tomorrow morning is the day! It's my last weigh in and I speak with the surgeon and he makes his final decision on whether he is going to do the surgery. I hope all goes well.

I'm with you- my surgeons office had me sign the consent and pay the program fee $300 on 5/15 and then the witch that submits the paperwork to the insurance didn't do it until last Thursday 5/23 . She is soooo nasty and mean! So now I've been waiting for approval and refuse to call my surgeons office cause she is soooo mean and I'm afraid tog telling her off !! I will call Aetna tomorrow to see if they decided yet. I'm so nervous and afraid that I won't be approved. To me, this surgery is too good to be true. I've been waiting for so long for a tool to help me get this weight off and keep it off! Keep the faith even though there are bumps in the road. I believe that God will help us :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
