mysunflower621 got a reaction from amykins in Does Anyone Go Back And Forth With Doubts?Thats a good idea of writing a list as to why you should have the surgery and why you shouldn't and you are right, I bet the list as to why I should have it will be longer than the list as to why I shouldn't! Most of why I shouldn't would be fears, most of why I should would be valid health reasons.
My problem is a double edged sword.. I have 2.5 months to research and talk to folks who have had or are planning for it like here on the boards but the also I have 2.5 months to over analyze everything and drive myself nuts!! LOL

mysunflower621 got a reaction from Banned member in Does Anyone Go Back And Forth With Doubts?WOW that is a wonderful benefit and a great opportunity that is give to folks having WLS and have that kind of coverage! I definitely will need to get a tummy tuck, lipo and something done with these arms of mine, but that will all be out of pocket and not covered so I'll probably have to wait a bit to get it all done after I reach goal. You are very lucky to have such a wonderful benefit! Your date is coming up soon, you must be very excited!

You will find Mr. Right who will love you and support you through all of the good and tough times.. you'll see, this was a blessing in disguise and now you won't have to deal with his antics while you are trying to recover. It's time for you to put you first!

mysunflower621 got a reaction from ProudGrammy in Why Are There Always Hoops To Jump Through?!Hi!
I work in HR and it is a Federal Requirement/Law that you have to be employed by that specific employer for 12 months and have worked 1250 hours to be eligible for the FMLA portion of a leave. SInce your company offers you 6 weeks of STD, normally, you should be job protected while on STD. If you moved to LTD then they can probably replace you if there was a business need.
Additionally, if you reach your 1 year mark anytime during your STD, you then become eligible for FMLA. If you reached your 1 year mark 2 months after your surgery, you then become eligible and could take it if you were still having recovery needs and issues requiring you not to work.
Good luck! I know the rules and red tape are such a PIA!
