So upset my surgery date keeps changing first Oct 18 then switched to nov 16 because of the coordinator rescheduled my psych evaluation then called and switched back to Oct 18 because the office magically got more appointments..

started my liquid diet oct 4

Now I get a call saying they haven't heard back from my insurance yet so they are rescheduling too OCT 26

So pissed what am I supposed to do now stay on liquid diet or start over in another week???

I don't wanna waste more shakes n have to buy more

Had my heart set on the 18..

I could cry I'm so hurt they keep doing this.

@@thesstrt

man oh man!!

office changing your surgery back and forth

they have their nerve!! :wacko:

i would be going cray (hubby just said "that's a short trip" LOL )

(we are two peas in a pod!)LOL

well, for now, at least the final change is just one week later than

the earlier postponement!! LOL

look at it this way - surgery 10/26 - NOT November

still disappointed - but you should be ok

if they change their mind again

punch them!! LOL

as far as pre-op Protein shakes

continue or not for one week??

if you can survive another week

with just liquids - that will help

your weight loss (honeymoon period)

liquids only are pretty hard for many

decision up to you

you could ask doc, he might say it's

up to you (cowards way out!)

good luck

speedy recovery

@@thesstrt I would call insurance to find out the status and call your surgeon's office back and tell them that you would like to keep it on 10/18/16. That's not fair to keep changing it on you - it's not as though you're going in to get your hair colored.

In the grande scheme of things, you hit a road bump. These things don't always go so smoothly, like us. But soon it will be history. Good luck.

      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.
