Was a humpty dumpty

Thank you I feel better now.

My GP told me.

Has anyone been told you might not be approved if your health risks are being controlled by meds? I am going through Kaiser HMO.

I have nothing but good comments about Dr.Yadegar. I just found out today one of my co-workers had her surgery(by-pass) performed by him. Hopefully I will be referred to him when the time comes. I stopped by the health ed dept at Kaiser, to find out when I will called and they said wait for a package in the mail. So know I wait so more!

Great thank you.

Thank you for the update..

I feel the same and I am only just starting the process. I am still waiting for Kasier to call to start things off.. It`s driving me nuts.

Good Luck, I will be thinking about you next Monday.. Dont worry you will be fine.

Hi neighbor! I am so glad you posted this, it answered many of my questions. I live in the AV and also have Kaiser. My referal was sent in by GP last Friday. Please keep us posted with your journey.

Thank you..

Anyone out there gone with Kaiser Palmdale/Lancaster for the VSG? How was it getting approved and how long was the process. Who was your DR? Were the classes available for after 5 or Saturdays (I work FT)? Thank you!

Hi Aplus, I thought the same thing oh I would never do that, or surgery is for the people that are so big they can't walk. After seeing two co-workers who had a bypass, lose so much weight and theysay its the best thing they have ever done. I really started to look into it I think the VSG is the choice for me. Last week my Dr agreed and sent in the referral. I am so tired of being tired, and taking 6 meds sometimes more a day with the side effects. So now I am stressing hoping I get approved. I have Kasier and not sure how they are about approving. When are you having the surgery? Jackie
