My Insurance Approved my Life Saving Revision!



Recommended Posts

My bariatric coordinator called me about an hour ago and shared the good news. My insurance has agreed to go with my surgeons referral from revision from Sleeve to Bypass!! All of the tests taken concluded that I have extreme reflux disease an irregular shape formed over time from my sleeve. I do not intend to have my sleeve fixed because it would not fix the reflux issues, which in time would lead to Barrett's and esophageal cancer. That's never a risk I'll take as cancer does run in my family.

Anyway I am very excited! I am so thankful that my insurance has approved the request! I have been looking for relief for a long time and feeling better. I am very sick and I just want to live again without complications. :)
