Frustrated Bailey Bariatric



Recommended Posts

I have been waiting for over a week for Dr V nurse to call me to set up my surgery! My navigator was so good to help me through the program fast so I could get my surgery before our vacation. I really zen they are busy but Wednesday I was told there was 3 people ahead of me and she would call me this week. How much you bet I don’t get a call tomorrow either!!! I’m about ready to call this all off. FRUSTRATED!! Anyone else take this long to get a surgery date???

This statement concerns me. Scheduling delays happen. They're part of life. While I understand they're frustrating...treating your surgery this disposably in the face of what amounts to a minor inconvenience gives me some pause for concern.

No criticism meant. Could you possibly be looking for an excuse to back out?

I definitely am not looking for an excuse to back out. Just frustrated that I keep getting a different answer every time I call. I understand scheduling delays happen but how many times it’s happening is what concerns me. My insurance has called me twice to get my surgery date and I keep telling them it’s not scheduled yet. Just concerned.

@acrowder61 I'm rewriting the old mid30s hit
Why won't you answer my questions, dear Bailey
I'm wearing my fingers to a pulp.
You would not give me answers or a knowledge my calls
I think you're doing me wrong.
Remember you said this was quick and easy
And it wouldn't take too long.
Remember I've got a vacation coming
You want me to stand in line.
If I have a heart attack from frustration
It will be on your head.
So give me a date, I really don't want to wait.
There's no rythmn or rhyme
Why you won't give me a time
Dang you Bailey Bariatrics, you're doing me wrong!
Not the world's greatest poetry but I do work cheap!😝👍

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
