Suggestion for Visitor Messages



Recommended Posts

I didn't realize I had any, my suggestion is something on the right side near private messages that says "New Visitor Messages".

I feel bad now, since I just now noticed them.. woops. I guess now I'll be checking it, but would still be nice to have something over there that lets you know to look!

Hi:

Am new to this, I need to know if anyone has hills physicians insurance, thru health net. I was approved for the bypass surgery, but not the lap band. I have called several hospitals, and seems hills doesn't approve the lapband, even when surgeon says best option for me. Help!!!

Eek, I too had no idea that there was such a thing until reading this thread. I never go to "my account" and I also had one from almost two weeks ago that I never responded too and now feel bad (thankfully she found my email address through my blog and contacted me that way as well).

I agree if it's possible about putting a link up under "Private Messages" on the right hand side so that new comers messages don't go unseen.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
