BPC

I will begin my two weeks of liguid diet on July 16th for my surgery on July 31st. I would like to plan something special for my last meal on July 15th. Any suggestions? I was thinking In-n-out burger but thats just a thought.

It bugs the heck out of me and it just doesn't seem right. The doctors make thousands of dollars off of each patient as it is for the surgery, then they have to stick it to you for a few extra hundred. We should have the right to take any product we want as long as it meets the necessary requirements.

I only found out two days ago that my surgery got approved and will be July 31st, also in Dallas but will be at Forest Park Medical Center. I got so nervous after the call that I started planning my day before in my head. I can only imagine what it will be like when the time gets closer. Good luck to you and have the faith that you will do wonderfully.

It's so cool how people can come together when they share a common interest and support each other. Even total strangers sometimes are more positive than coworkers or friends.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience and encouragement. I will definitely be updating as this journey continues.

After three months of classes and appointments and all of those hoops that you have to jump through, just 8 days after submitting to my insurance for the first time I'm approved. They told me that it would take at least 30 days to hear back so I was ok with that. So I get the phone call yesterday while i was at work from my doctor's office telling me this wonderful news and for some reason I was suddenly nervous and almost shaking. I was so stunned at how quick it came through that the lady calling me had to ask me twice I believe whether I wanted to schedule or not. July 31st is my big day. Omg.
