  8. My pcp said my insurance company is notorious for denying people wanting weightless surgery, even if it is proven medically necessary. She is just preparing me.

My period is super irregular it'll first start with spotting then it'll stop.. And then come back and I'll hVr it for like 2 weeks .. I'm just super excited about having surgery fingers crossed I get a call back from my surgeon this week if not I'll be on it like clock work lol
  18. So how did things go with the surgeon?? Still going for the sleeve? I originally was going for the lap-band, but thought it was too much trouble with the back and forth fills and all...and my primary thought the bypass was too drastic, so I went with the sleeve...it's working out great for me now!! Wish you the best, tammie30...keep us posted!! Thanks, everything went well. My surgeon told me the bypass would be best for me. So I'm going with that. I'm just waiting for the call for the surgery.
  19. Yeah, lol I was goin ask about the fan situation a lot of peope have said bring a fan... I might end up bringing a life size one from home lol .. I like to sleep where it's freezing cold but comfortable enough to sleep in. Even in winter.., what if I havr my period the day of surgery ?
  20. Yeah I don't have any of those machines.. But I Weill be taking comfy things. I'll see if my husband can stay with me the first night at least .. He can't take off work I mean he can ask and see if he can. This is major and I'll need his support and him there lol.. So exciting
  21. OMG lol this is exciting stuff though ahhhhh super excited I just wanna wake up from the surgery
  22. OMGGGG lol, even your bra ?? Lol do they put in the catheter while I'm sedated ?
  23. Ew what they tell you to take off your undies ?? Omg lol whyyyy
  24. I did that too but you'll have catheter/folly the first day and then an IV the whole time you're there so you own clothes can be tricky. I did wear pajama shorts after my folly came out. I mean I'll wear short sleeves.. And like Lon pajama pants but the first day I guess I'll have to wear a gown but once that catheter is out .. I'm changing lol
