Aetna Approved Sleeve to Bypass Revision!

[Bypassjourney 88]

I got the approval for my sleeve to bypass revision surgery from Aetna!!!! I had VSG in January, 2012. I started gaining back the weight about 1 1/2 years ago and sadly regained all I had lost. I am SO ready for this second "second chance" and feel so blessed!!

The insurance coordinator at my doctor's office was very worried that we would get approved because other requests had been denied by Aetna. So I am the first one that has received the approval at their office! I will be getting all the pre-op appointments done quickly and surgery is like to be by the end of October!

One thing I did not do after VSG was to develop a network of support from this community. I want to change that this time around! I need all the support I can get.

VSG Surgery: 1/26/12

Highest Weight: 239.9

Lowest Weight 150.2

Height: 5'5"

Bypass Surgery: Date TBD

Current Weight: 236
