Disappointment?

This is my first healthcare related job and I too work for a hospital.. Their health coverage does not cover WLS either- imagine??? I have never encountered attitudes toward sick time and medical leave as I have in this community. I would have thought that the insurance coverage would have covered anything and everything, and time off for medical leave (unpaid) would be a given. Go figure.

Great attitude, and you'll get your surgery. I hope the time flies by for you, and can only imagine the frustration with being denied time off. Keep blogging, it's fun, it's an outlet, and it's a great place to dump all of emotions and thoughts out.

I'm not sure what kind of Job you have but I had 3 days off plus the weekend and was back to work. I also was a self pay and my wife would not let me go to Mexico so I went to Vegas with Dr Umbach and had such a easy surgery I felt no pain from the surgery at all. Good luck with what you do.... it is worth it.

Thanks for sharing with me! I'm starting to feel "apart of" the gang!!! <3
