Since my surgery is paid for by Tricare (military insurance) I have worked with a bariatric team until I finished all of my pre-requisits for surgery. Today I met my actual surgeon. He seemed very nice and informative. He completely agrees that the sleeve is the best option for me. I got lots more information on the things I will doing before and immediately following my surgery. I will meet with my anethesiologist on March 27 and have the surgery on March 28.

 

I'm getting anxious now but I am so ready for this change.

I wish you well and hope you have the results I have had. Nerves are part of it but trust me, once those leave your system, you will be good to go! This is the right place to get all the good information. Keep us informed!

what do you think about the gastric plication surgery

I had never heard of gastric plication until this post. I just read a brief summary of the procedure and it seems like it might be a great option.

Unfortunately, my insurance only covers LapBand, Vertical Sleeve, or Gastric Bypass at this time. Are you going to be able to get plication?
