jesslynn32288 7 Posted January 12, 2018 OK so i was planning on getting this done actually looking forward to it. Seen a post got scared. I have no comorbidities i was just over the 40 BMI. I started nortripyline for headache prevention and well there goes almost 10 pounds i was 254 at that point i was trying to maintain so my insurance would cover procedure i am now not eligible. Loss of appetite is very rare for nortriptyline and im actually grateful i fast usually in the morning until 11 or 12 eat lunch and sometimes through out the day ill have a yogurt or a piece of fruit and im fine until dinner. and dinner is way smaller portions then i was doing so i guess for right now surgery is off.

orionburn 1,024 Posted January 12, 2018 I know it seems daft. If I got under a certain weight I would have been denied as well with my insurance. Don't recall exactly what the BMI cutoff was but think it was lower 30s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
