Any of you scheduled for your endoscopy & How long after your Psyh, Cardi & sleep did it take for you to get your endoscopy date!!!

In my case everything had to be done within 1-3 months before my surgery. My insurance required that I am on a monitored diet with my surgeon 4 months before my surgery. So I started to see my surgeon in dec 2013, psych, endoscopy and pcp clearance in feb 2014 and my surgery was march 31. You can ask your surgeon what he thinks you should do. Every insurance has their own requirements. I would say best to have everything done 1-2 months before you plan on having your surgery. Hope this helps!

The endo was the first thing I did. I had mine last June but didn't have my surgery until March.

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
