What is a long process. Did you have to have all test in before surgery date or did they give you a tentative surgery date. Also did BCBS take a while for approval. My surgeon told me it takes about 3 weeks for approval, but I've heard other say it didn't take them as long. Where are you going to have your surgery performed?

I had an upper gi, nut eval, psych eval. The surgery center will not set a date until I'm approved. It can take up too three weeks but some get approval faster. I have not been approved yet. I will have surgery at Wesley long in Greensboro.

I have my endoscopy on July 10th and I have to have a sleep study completed, which is on June 27th. I also will attend my first class on June 27th. So I'm very early in the process. Don't have an appointment for psych eval yet. Sure I would love to join.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
