Dipping a toe in the pool...



Recommended Posts

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. :)

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.
