I had an ulcer found on the first EGD. Went on meds. EGD repeated in 6 weeks. Ulcer healed. Surgery on 6/1. Take the meds. They work! [emoji3]

I had an endoscopy on May 23 and the same thing...diagnosed with ulcers. They did a biopsy and I go back on June 2 forthe results. I was concerned that this would get me a denial but more concerned about what caused the ulcers. I am not a drinker but for on a rare social occassion. I have taken my share of NSAIDS in my life for menstral pain though. I also read that it could come from the H-Pylori bacteria. I pray that all comes back good and I can get approved for the surgery. Good luck with your approval as well.

Yes, I go back for a discussion of the results on the 8th. But he put me on meds for the ulcers. I mean why would be put me on meds for it just to deny me? =( I'm worried

      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.
