notforthefaint 264 Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) Hi everyone! I am new to the site and just took the first few steps last Friday in what I know will be a long journey. I met my surgeon Dr. Radecke who I absolutely adore and we are aiming for an early September surgery (VSG). I know I still have some bumps to overcome (meeting my insurance deductible in 3 months would be one of them? can I pull it off?? LOL!! I will be going to every freaking Dr. I can think of between now and then). I told my son on Saturday, he's 10 and I am so incredibly proud of how he responded and is being very supportive. I did also want to say thank you in advance for all the posts I have read so far. Everyone has something to offer and I have learned so much already! That's it for now, I just didn't want to be a post troll. Edited May 26, 2015 by notforthefaint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Martene81 383 Posted May 30, 2015 Good luck! As far as your deductible, you can definitely pull it off. I started the process in January with new insurance and with all my pre op appointments I had met my out of pocket max by April so my surgery was covered at 100%! I just made arrangements on my other outstanding balances and have one very low monthly payment! This was blessing I thought for sure I'd have to pay a fortune for my bypass.
