  2. how did you feel when you got it? or did you? would you get it again just to do it? could you see yourself doing it everyday?
  3. omg 20 secs lmao im a big baby i would be the person asking to be sleep while they do it.. or asking them to hurry
  4. no just the test... if i could be put to sleep and do it i would lmao.. i dont want to see it or feel it
  5. same they told me 72hrs not more or I would have to redo it.
  6. smh thanks guys.. i appreciate it im hoping its fast and over fast..
  7. lmao yes female i hope i get someone gentle because smh i get panic attacks and well i hate to have an incident lmao
  8. i was even able to get a sooner date because people didn't want to do the test. im in california... i hope it can be over fast smh
  9. they told me at first i didn't have to do it.. now they said i have to.... im scared of this test..
  10. yeah well monday is it for them. i can be redirected to a different surgeon in medical group or switch medical groups i called around also. i got a feeling she might as i wanted records so she knowns whats next im out. but if not good bye i don't understand whats so hard to submit
  11. well i'm considering my opinions. i have literally done everything and i keep getting lied to that it was submitted but still hasn't been. almost 2 months and now that i requested my records telling me for sure again monday. i'm just over it no reason for me to sit and keep sitting al is done been done
  12. what upset me was i wanted that hospital to begin with it was 10 mins from my house smh. so to have them put me there was a little upsetting. i just got submitted for my sleeve and guess what this surgeon saying he wants to switch hospitals. i hope it can be done quick. lmao maybe the same hospital who knows
  13. Well this is when i was having my band removed i was all approved and ready to go when the surgeon didn't tell me his contract expired with that hospital. i was at a stall smh. so they actually just assigned new surgeon and hospital on their own and got it done same day. i was lucky

    smh I have tried everything believe me and they were like no has to be in a hospital setting in order to be approved which is stupid. I had the surgery before and it was time to take it out now I have medical which is paying for it all but the medical group is making it hard to get this done. they don't have many hospitals they are contracted with so the ones they do have are on lockdown. I started to do ww anyway online but they said it still won't count.

    I am so pissed right now. I have done everything and the only thing left is 3 months dietician and nutrition. smh no one is taking patient therapy and I have tried to do Telehealth but they won't accept that insurance won't. I am so f**king over this covid 19 everyone is getting their surgery and I am literally sitting her stuck. wtf so close in a minute I'm just going to go to Mexico and get my surgery cash
  17. does anyone know why they won't tell you how many visits they just told me 8 units? lmao
  18. yes I got my referral approved so now physiology and nutrition.... app Tuesday for physic but nutrition is closed until may and we all know how that is going so yea. I'm gone stay positive but omg I am so ready to get back to a normal life. this house thing sucks
  19. So I guess I'm back. was banded back in 2012 and lost weight had a baby. Lapband had issues nothing new right. I had to have emergency removal 2018 and boy was it painful. any way I thought I could manage without anything in place at all. Boy was I wrong I gained my weight back and I am actually larger than before I had lapband. So I finally threw in the white flag and decided to the another shot at it. I had my consultation for the sleeve but as you all know. everything is on hold I am waiting for the insurance to approve next step not surgery. I know that is on hold. I just hope that I don't have to suffer to long from the next step. how is everyone else holding up and how are you staying positive

  21. I submit over thursday have surgery date for June 20th I can't wait to find out. Congrats how long did it take for a response
  22. I am awaiting my time
