My insurance Co. called the doctor's office...



Recommended Posts

I have been fun all week waiting for my surgeon's office to submit my info that has been ready for two weeks. I was told yesterday that it would be submitted before the end of the day. So I called the insurance company this morning to see if it had been sent in. Of course, it hadn't. The insurance rep wanted to know what the hold up was, so she called the doctor's office herself. Now I am waiting for the insurance coordinator to call me with reference number to my case. I hope I have approval process that isn't to long. Now that I have annoyed the heck out of the doctor's office.

Actually I was booked for a RNY yesterday to be done on June 25th and my pre-op is June 19th. The waiting isn't the most fun, especially when they take forever to send it to insurance.

      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.

      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!
