  2. Wow this makes me feel better... Great advice... And you right it's just a small glitch.. I thank Jesus that I'm still here... Thank you so much for the advice!!!
  3. I was sleeved on Feb 1st and on Feb 4th I was in the ER... Chest pains and could barely breathe. After EKG and X-ray my surgeon admitted me. I was told I have Pericarditis, I was not discharged until Feb 7th @ 9pm... I still have some chest pain and the cardiologist said no exercise for 2 weeks. I'm trying to stay positive but it's hard, I feel like this is holding me back.

    Sleeved on Feb 1st.. Surgery went great... Doc says liver was perfect... After recovery they put me in a room ( didn't notify my family) and left me for an hour. I was in so much pain it was in my back...once I got pain medicine they had to alternate with two different kinds b/c they i went so long without meds.. They had to get it under control... Finally I was told that I was not in the hospital records so they could not give me pain medicine right away.. But the good news is I'm home...feel much better just a little sore..

    Glad you are doing so well... And the surgery was boring... That's too funny... Keep up the great work and keep us posted....

    UHC

    Paperwork submitted Dec. 7th.. My surgeon is Jonathan Taylor in Baton Rouge, la.. I can't get an appt to schedule surgery until I'm approved. I call every three days and I'm still pending. I was told by UHC coordinator because I don't have a surgery date could be the reason for the delay along with the holidays... Not a good feeling... This waiting game is driving me crazy

    Thank you. I started in July, I had to do the six month with the dietitian my final appointment with the dietitian was on December 5th. But once UHC approved me it was on December 31st. So now my doctor (Jonathan Taylor) was out of the office last week and this week all booked up so my appt with him is on Jan 16th. I was hoping to have the surgery in December but Now I just want it soon so I can be healthy and confident again
