xoashS2 11 Posted June 12, 2014 I know from my end, I was happy to do the 6 months pre op so I knew as much as humanly possible about the sleeve. My surgery date was originally 12/19/13 and because of the 6 month pre op we discovered a few intolerances that resulted in my being very ill and having to get my gallbladder taken out (which happened on November 9, 2013. After healing and making sure I had no gastrointestinal issues from my intolerances I am now finally 20 pounds down and scheduled for surgery on June 23rd! I would recommend doing the pre op work and getting in the right mind set for the life changing event that is going to occur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jersrose43 837 Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) So item 1 - you don't have another plan. You're paying cash. Second piece of this - you don't know if it will be covered because you're not following the prior requirements. The requirements are the 6 month diet plan/or nutritional monitoring I think you are putting yourself at risk Edited June 13, 2014 by Jersrose43 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
