  3. and now that I think about it, that may be why I sometimes feel like crap.
  4. Yeah, I don't know because I honestly didnt even know about the high blood pressure until going through these appts. On my first visit I had high blood pressure and they said oh, it may be due to it being your first appt. I just let it go. Last week I went to my obgyn and they said you have high blood pressure...and I was I guess I do now...now it seems like its consistently
  5. Yeah I have only now started having issues with high blood pressure. Basically everyone in my family is diabetic, high blood pressure and heart issues. I have had issues with weight all my life nothing new but now that I am getting older (35) its just getting even worst.
  6. oh and keep in touch with me, if Id love to talk to someone that is being sleeved the same day I am planning on doing youtube videos to keep a video log

  9. anyone had any issues with insurance here?
  10. I am suppose to get my sleeve 3/27 but just got a letter from the doctor that has me confused. saying the authorization from my insurance is based on medical necessity and not a guarantee of payment. I am confused and don't know what that means...
  11. Its great to see so many people in central pa I am a newbie so if anyone is ok with talking to me, send me a message, I need all the support and advice I can get.
  12. I am in Lancaster, PA by the way
  13. Hi Amy, I also have Dr. Ku. email me elegant_xpress at yahoo Looks like my surgery date is 3/27 I still have to do one more group class, if you want to meet for the next one let me know it will be 3/7, apperently I missed one. After that the next day they will call my insurance.
  14. Hi Amy, I have my last appt this friday, meaning my last diet and excersise. then I will find out if I will be approved. I am going for the Sleeve. What are you getting done? Patricia
  15. So glad i found this, I am in Lancaster but have not had surgery yet, still going through all the appts.
  16. I had my essure done in 2005, it was not bad at all, I was out, got up, had a little cramps and the next day i was walking and shopping, My girlfriend just had it done this year too and she had the same experience. Now I really need an ablation and that sounds terrifying to me...but I have always had such bad periods and now that I am getting older they seem to get even heavier, its so embarrassing, I always have accidents.
  17. I am new and I dont have a date yet, I am due back on 2/22 for my final visit with diet and exercise and i am so scared, I have not gained but have not lost, I really need to get strickter, I have been eating healthier and learning to cook better so I am trying new things. I am just very worried, they will say I won't make it.
