Covingtry cares of KY - Medicaid questions (Gastric Sleeve)



Recommended Posts

I have not openly talked to my doctor about this yet, mainly because in KY we have had 12 inches of snow dumped on us and its -9 degrees and eveything is a ploar ice land and we are in a state of emergancty so I cant really go anywhere but I was wanting to know if anyone else has medicaid and did you get approved for the gastric sleeve or better yet the duodenal switch?


I am 6 foot 1 inch tall 24 yrs old.


I have type 2 diabetes, asmah and high blood pressure


I weigh 456lbs and have tried Phentermine with no success (it messed with my other meds and made me sick as a dog and I did not lose on it)


I have tried diets out the ass and nothing seems to help and the more I weigh, the worse I feel about myself.



I am sick of this.


I have coventry cares I missspelled that in the title, sorry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
