pcvela 22 Posted October 28, 2014 Well I just found out that my surgery date is on 12/15/14. I've been a lurker for a while but I guess now that reality has hit, time to become active with questions from veterans. I got my date today and like instantly got nervous. I'm sure I'll have questions as time goes. Got my gall bladder ultra sound set for 12/4 and a pre op 12/9. I'll be off from work for 3 weeks so hope that is enough for a little healing. I'm a police officer so decided it was a good idea to be off a little while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pcvela 22 Posted October 31, 2014 That's exci how long did your process take? My insurance required me to visit a dietician once a month for 4 months and also to see a psych doc. It took 2 weeks for approval from insurance...so about 5 - 6 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melissaingr 75 Posted October 31, 2014 Good luck! Three weeks will be good. The first week is the hardest but remember that everyday gets easier and I promise it will all be worth it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
