kheter55, I'm impressed how quickly you got through your program, I first saw my surgeon in July 2016 (and I did not have a 6 month program with my insurance). Many, many appointments but........ my day is Jan 25th. Good luck to you and all the other Jan 19th's.

yes, I'm surprised too. The whole month of December was full between Pulmonary, Cardiac Drs., a nuclear stress test. all the classes and support group meeting, the nutrition visit. Tomorrow I have my endoscope, Tuesday the primary Drs clearance. Thursday to the dietician at the supper market for a tour and then I'm done. I am only 11 days till surgery.

My first appointment was 9/22 and all the evals,egd, and classes were in October. Then after my third follow up appt in Nov I was submitted. I think my Drs office shoots for the 3 months and then the 3 week insurance approval.

everything got approved right away and I only had to do one nutrition class, it made all the difference.

Hi. I'm the 25th January so nervous.

Sent from my SM-G930F using the BariatricPal App

I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I want everything to go smoothly and wake up with my sleeve done. No complications. I don't want to wake up and be told he couldn't do it for some reason. I am a worrier. I just wish it was the day after surgery right now.

Blessings to you all! My consultation is Monday. How long before the actual surgery from step 1?

My 1st visit with the surgeon was 11/15/16 and my surgery is on 1/19/17. It all depends how many nutrition classes your insurance requires. Mine only require one nutrition class.
Does anyone know if you fail the nicotine test will they cancel surgery.

Most surgeons will yes. Mainly due to the healing that smoking will prohibit.

      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.
