How did it go?
It went great. I really like my surgeon he was very down to earth very helpful professional and he answered all of my questions he made sure the surgery I chose will be the right one for me. But other than that I don't have much to do for insurance just blood work EKG ,psych eval.,two nutrition classes and get copies of my cpap records.

Am I over reacting the last two days have been so stressful yesterday my surgeon ordered 16 labs for me I got stuck multiple times. Today I tried to set up my psych. Evaluation appointment they wouldn't let me I was told they don't take my insurance. So I called my surgeon told her what happened they say that wasn't true so now I'm waiting on them to fix the issue.

Nah, not overreacting. The process can be arduous, but worth it in my opinion.

My psych (woman was a complete loon by the by, who insisted I take notes of her brilliance and promoted her book and therapy sessions during my one and only session.), did not accept insurance, so I had to pay out of pocket.

Be sure to talk to your doctor about stress and concerns, that's part of what they are there for.

Hang in there, everything will be just fine.

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
