So, I called my coordinator about my status yesterday and she called me back today saying it was still pending. I had called my insurance company to see if they mailed my letter saying I met all the requirements for surgery and she said they did on the 23rd!

I told my coordinator that they mailed the letter on the 23rd of December and should expect it later this week to next week but she stopped me and asked me if they said I was approved...

I told her yes (I haven't heard anything different since calling the insurance company several times) and she said that the office would call them instead of waiting for the letter and asked me if I wanted to schedule surgery!!!

I pretty much freaked out and screamed, "YES!!!" and got a surgery date for Friday, January 16th!!! School starts on the 12th for me but since school is only just now coming back into session I won't miss much!

I'm so nervous that something will go wrong and I will have to cancel surgery but I will worry about that when the time comes! For right now I am just happy to say that I have a surgery date!!!!

10 FREAKING DAYS!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
