Insurance & options reduced



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I've posted in the gastric sleeve section and have that listed as my surgery in my profile. How do I change that? The reason I ask is that I just found out that the sleeve isn't going to be an option for me due to my having mild reflux. Looks like bypass will be my only option that won't make that worse. Bypass, from what I've read, actually helps in most reflux cases.

So my question is two part: 1) How do I change my surgery in my profile to bypass, and 2) Have any of you been approved for bypass with reflux or GERD?

Oh, and I looked everywhere to see where I change my surgery in my profile and cannot at all seem to find out how I change that. Thanks so much in advance for your help.

Hi :) I'd like to know too how to edit profile. I'd like to add pic . but I'd also like to know if anyone had phc or php of California for insurance ? I would also like to know if anyone's had the gastric bypass if so do I have to diet before the surgery?

If you click on the triangle beside your name it will bring up a menu. You go to my surgery tab and you can change it there.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
