I am in the process of getting insurance approval...cant wait!!!

1st question tho... I had a baby in decemeber. Have u ever heard of insurance companies making you wait a certain amount of time? Even if you were a BMI of 40+ before and again now...

Does anyone else feel completely nervous waiting for insurance approval???

Many health insurance companies require that you undergo a 6 month medically supervised weight loss program that includes diet and exercise.

I'm waiting on insurance. I've only got one co morbidity with a BMI of 35 so it's iffy. I have a sleep study in two weeks that is supposed to put me over the edge. But what if I don't have sleep apnea?... my husband says that's not going to happen... I have it bad... lol. I also am having an egd because of symptoms of gurd ... have nodules on my tonsils from all the reflux... found that out when I went to ent for horse voice x2 months... sooooo.... I'm hoping enough is wrong with me but no guarantees

I know it's non of my business but since you're asking about stuff I thought it would only be fair to your precious little baby if you waited a couple of years to breast feed plus it is very hard on yourself to do these back to back. I'm by your side and wishing you all the happiness in the world [emoji5]

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
