momo2k16 7 Posted February 10, 2016 I'm a little concerned about meds. I'm a hard pill taker as it is. And by having to take pills with a swig of Water idk if I can do that. Do you guys know if they offer liquid? Getting sleeved in exactly one week from now ☺️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you guys know if they offer liquid? Getting sleeved in exactly one week from now ☺️ Yep! Start asking your pharmacist if what you need to take comes in liquid form. I only had to take pain mends in liquid form the first week. If you need or want to do it this way, as your pharmacist maybe you can make the switch. Also ... I think I learned that If I used liquid medicine, I needed to let it sit a bit. I had been washing it down with water. Not sure if it affected efficacy but I did my own test and I think it did make a difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jennaluv 15 Posted February 10, 2016 My appointment got moved up nearly a month. My Dr's office called today and asked to switch to an earlier date because of a cancellation, and I nearly fell off my chair. It's crazy after so many years of pushing for this, to know its finally going to happen. My surgery is on Feb 24. I'm thrilled, but trying to get everything together in time.

Chair1311 58 Posted February 10, 2016 Sooo bloody irritated today. Have my surgery set for the 23rd. Was supposed to start my preop diet today, and come to find out my insurance has denied my procedure! All due to some missing signature or something! The surgeons office has resubmitted the claim. Still holding onto the original surgery date. Keeping my fingers crossed it will go through this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still holding onto the original surgery date. Keeping my fingers crossed it will go through this time. Hang in there. I got denied & ran into the excuse "Not medically necessary" & other hurdles countless times. Part of the reason I jumped on an earlier surgery date was because I was afraid of the same thing. Best of luck for the resubmit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frmfat2fit 27 Posted February 10, 2016 I had surgery yesterday the 9th. I feel alright. I did get some gas pains in my shoulder, but I walked the halls and they went away. I love ice chips because it is all I can have right now. The best thing is I got to go through this process with my best friend. We were sleeved an hour apart.
