Best of luck to you. Everything will go great and you will soon be on your way !!!

Hydro condone makes me sick to my stomach, most pain Meds do, so I am concerned about that after surgery. Hopefully the pain will sub side and u won't need. Best of luck

Awesome, I am sure everyday will get easier to . Good luck

This why I hired a lawyer, thank goodness for my family !!!

My surgery is 6/4, and to add to above, I do recall getting a pizza, but do not recall it being discounted , but the price it was, is the price you get for a pizza that is close to expiration

I work for a major grocery store chain as a supervisor . They claim I worked with the deli manager to get a half price pizza. I remember buying a pizza but the was no way discussion about it as stealing. There is however the possibility I bought it as the time was expiring on it and there for the manger always discounts it. My manager new what kind of surgery I was having and has a family member who had many complications afterwards. I think he was afraid of me being out for surgery and how it would effect them if I had complications. It is all bulls$$$. As of now my lawyer is trying to get me off of suspension because of discrimination

Wow, one month .... Keep it up, stay healthy !

Hoping for a speedy recovery !

Has anyone been discriminated at work for Plans to go out for surgery, during medical leave or soon after returning ? I was suspended from my job due a false accusation and it is 10 days before my surgery. I hired a lawyer, any comments ????

Thank you. Pre op testing went well, alot going on right now, getting stressed more than I can say, has nothing to do with actually having the surgery. Just ready to be on the otherside

Great job !!!

Awesome, good for you. Keep it up

Have you called them to ask if they cover and what the requirements R ?

Awesome, your on the otherside , good luck !!

I had two nicotine tests given to me during my 3 month program, I passed both by quitting. I am not smoking alot, but that is not the point. No more testing for nicotine, just my goals, and I know I need to. Surgery date is 6/4 !!!!

I have been smoking to, but have vowed to quit one week before surgery and be smoke free after. I want to heal the best I can and smoking will effect that

Ok this might seem harsh but this is a new life and the old life was embarrassing, pick up the phone and call the doctor !!!!! The only dumb question is the one not asked !!! Good luck

My surgery is 6/4 and I live in pa. I happen to have and extremely supportive family as both my sister and mom had surgery, both have done fabulous !! Welcome to site best of luck, the people here rock !'n

Pre-op testing tomorrow and surgery in 6/4. I have no idea how much i weigh today, but my last weigh in was 245. Today I got two separate comments on how it looks like i am losing weight, felt good. I have seen alot of comments on pre op liquid diets, my doctor said no, but I have to drink the wonderful liquid to clean me out the day before, (so looking forward to that... Not !!!). Have been eating my favorite things and only 1 left on the list . Best luck to anyone this week going through surgery !!!!

Isn't it great to get the approval letter !!! My surgery is 6/2/12, I almost feel like it will be a new birthday. My surgeon would have done me within 2-3 weeks of approval, but I chose to wait til schools was out for My so. Who is 10. I am looking forward to the hard work. Good luck to you and welcome

My surgery is June 4, i pray it all works out for you!

12 years ago that happened to me, I had and insurance that would pay, but bmi has to be 40 or 35 with 2 co-morbid factions. Start looking them up and the ones that fit you need to be noted. Your surgeons office should be experienced With getting this approved very simply, or maybe find a new surgeon. Now 12 years later, I Was borderline bmi and started losing weight and got scared ins would deny, i put stuff in my pockets that would be a pound or two ! Find out what weight was submitted to insurance too. Go after surgeon office, make them help you

Congrat, good luck, you'll be in my thoughts tomorrow !!!

Great story, almost like I wrote it, except I have one son. My surgery date is 6/4, and I am counting down the days. I am so looking forward to being on the other side. I have been heavy all my life, and finally I am taking back control and getting a do-over almost, with lots of hard work, we can both be successful !!! Good luck to you

Great to hear everything went well, you are on the other side !!
