Alright! I had my endoscopy done. All clear. Completed sleep study, had my 2nd of 6 weigh-ins. Down 7 pounds. Psych Evaluation in May. My bs has been in a more acceptable range. I am chugging along. I have been drinking Protein shakes most days and found a few that I like. New goal is to replace one meal a day everyday with a shake. I am chugging along. Hope everyone has a blessed day.

One step at a time, or with the WLS process-----one hoop jumped at a time!

It's a tangled mess of appointments, but the process will keep you busy until you get your surgery.

Get going-----heading for second and hoping to steal third! :)

Prayers going up.

Just curious are you using doctors that your surgeon recommended for your insurance criteria ?? Mine were not covered so I am using my own and just passing the info to my surgeon to be submitted to my ins company . But I have consult forms that I printed on line and asking the Drs to fill them out .

Yes, I have been using the medical providers my surgeon recommended. It so happens they all have been in my network for Insurance. I have a very high deductible if I don't stay within my enhanced network so I check and if it's not in the special network I ask my surgeon for another recommendation.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
