I have BcBs as well when I went to the first seminar I gave my bariatric center all my insurance info .... They found out I also had the exclusion clause ..... So I am a self pay ... It really sounds like the insurance co screwed up sometimes you can appeal the exclusion if its a medical necessity with dr assistance .... So sorry and best of luck

Without going to far in a limb here I think most of us have reflux atlest I know I did fit years I am already being weened off of omeprazol to Zantac then to go off all together ... The sleeve surgery as well as my hernia fix has been great so far .... Is it the chrones that is the issue ???? I don't know about that and surgery sorry but good luck in your journey ...

I confess ; I hate to exercise I want people to compliment me I miss bar food I lie about my Water intake to my hubby I told my hubby I would never do tummy Tuck or boob job .... But it really depends

Well I am anemic so bypass was off the table , I didn't want the band after I researched it more , so since I was a self pay and this was my one shot the sleeve was the best choice for me as well !!!! No regrets 6 weeks our 30 lbs down

Have you checked you blood pressure ? Are u getting enough fluids???? I'd call the dr just to be safe

So happy for you , it's alway inspiring to see the before pics and you look wonderful now thanks for showing us

I've started the fresh lemon and a lil decaf tea in water it is helping get up the in my oz. thanks for all the suggestions I'm game for anything

So cool !!!!

Sw 261 Cw 234 Feeling pretty good finally , going for my check up today , I'm very curious about my blood work and how all my supplements are working , I'm getting the hang of life without bad food , I really don't miss the crap stuff ,,, I really thought bread and Pasta would be hard to delete but really not so much 27 lbs is pretty much on track I feel , not a big enough change for me to really notice , just subtle things ,,,, looking forward to the oh wow reactions to come .... No regrets NONE !!!! Feeling blessed and hopeful for my future health ....

I was never a big water drinker to begin with and I understand in my head that I need to get my 64 oz in especially now .... But I gave such a hard time , I have tried all the additives , etc is something wrong with me ???? Feeling frustrated !!!

Feeling pretty good , getting to understand my Limits ... Only down 25 lbs but better down than up so I'm pleased it too 30 years to put it on lol ... I'm so glad that I went through this I was a self pay but it was totally worth it to help me live a better life , everyday I feel blessed to have the support , I have never had any push back , which is awesome ... I'm averaging about 600-800 cals a day and I track with my fitness pal which helps ,,, I can't wait to hit onederland ... I haven't see. That in 26 years OMG but it's within my reach wish me luck ya'all .....

It's always ok to be nervous we have all been there , but if you have faith in your surgeon and do what your told you will be fine you will be fine ..

Nope have you called your surgeon ??? I would just to be safe .. Good luck
