  1. Has anyone had any issues with their customer service? I ordered a sample pack of nectar, and found out right away that the order was back ordered... I sent a few emails, and 10 days after my original email, I got a response explaining one flavor was on back order. No problem, they offered to ship everything but the one flavor, and then ship the last packet when it came in. That was 10 days ago... Still no nectar. The customer service guy I emailed seemed nice, took responsibility, etc., but I still haven't gotten my order. Has anyone had a similar experience?
  2. I'll trade ya prayers I think my insurance req's will be submitted in about a week.
  3. I seriously hope I don't have to take them... We'll see when I meet with the hematologist.
  4. I hate Lovenox shots, or I hated them six years ago. Have they gotten any less painful?
  5. It took that long because of insurance or the doctors?
  6. Holly, I don't know you, so take this with a grain of salt. If his cheating on you causes you distress, you need counseling. He isn't going to want to go, but if he does love you, and wants to make your relationship work, it needs to happen. I am a male in a strictly monogamous relationship, so my situation is obviously different than yours, but he sounds like dirt.do you have kids together?
  7. Huh maybe I should think about buying some samples first huh?
  8. Fuzzy nave is on back order btw in the sample packs (I don't know about regular quantities...)
  9. For example, my NUT suggested during the pre-op diet so you get all your nutrients...
  10. I had an endoscopy about a year ago for a different issue... Super easy, I don't remember anything but the doc talking, and waking up in the recovery room. Not even a sore throat. No worries, you will all be fine.
  11. I have some friends who are married and poly. I can only imagine how difficult it would be to have a healthy relationship with your spouse. Counseling is a great idea, and he does seem like a jerk.
  12. So, for those of you "choosing" when you go back, or how long you need off, ultimately isn't it up to your doctor? I mean, I have never had a major surgery, but don't they typically tell YOU when you should/can go back to work?
  13. Gas x strips? I haven't had my surgery yet, but I hear they're all the rage!
  14. They are high in protein, usually very moist, low fat/sugar? How do people feel about these when they're a year out, and need something quick?
  15. I'm pre op and I've been walking for 2 days. it was fine the first day, but today I'm in a lot of pain when I went on my walk... For those of you with chronic aches and pain, how do you get your thirty minutes a day in?
  16. What did everyone do while off work?
  17. Super obsessed... Half way through the processes. I get submitted to insurance on Monday... OCD going slightly wild.
  18. This is the month I have to wait for my insurance, wait for my testing, and Amit for my surgery to be scheduled! Time can't go by fast enough
  19. Anyone have any suggestions? I am a big guy, but think it would be fun to add to my exercise routine...
  20. But the best part is, after the psych OKs me, they submit to my insurance, and I start the 'big battery of tests', and then they schedule my surgery!
  21. Has anyone been able to use their flex pay plans for vitamins and/or protein?
