Hello Everyone!

I am new to this site. I have Aetna insurance and had to follow a 3 month plan for approval. I've done everything they required and my doctor's office (True Results) submitted the paperwork on 11/17/09. My surgery is tentatively scheduled for 12/17/09.

My questions are:

- Has anyone had experience with True Results / Dr. Nirmul?

- Has anyone had any issues with Aetna not approving the surgery after their requirements have been met?

- What should I expect the first week to 10 days after surgery?

Thanks for any feedback... have a good weekend!

well hi there and welcome. This is a wonderful site to be on. You can use the search feature to find threads relating to your doctor and to your after care.

There is a wealth of information already on here, READY, SET, READ!

If not for this site I am sure I would not have had the success I am so proud of thus far.

Again welcome and explore. Lana

Dr. Nirmul placed my band on June 18 of this year. I've written about my experiences with True Results a few times on my blog, if you want to check that out (sorry, don't have time to type it all out right now!)

      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.
