May Sleevers?
Sleeved 5/22. Nausea is wicked right now

"Final" weigh in
Seeing the scale go in the right direction is mostly what they're looking for. I swore I couldn't lose weight and then I went on the preop liver shrink diet and lost 15lbs. I was shocked. I wish you well. Do let us know how you did.

Just told surgery wouldn't be for another 6ish months
I'm so sorry. That's really disappointing. I waited two years. Some was developing dvt and some was having my dad pass away. I almost went to Mexico to have it done because I felt like it would never happen. I understand that disappointment. It'll happen. Hang in there.

Medically induced stress test?
If it's like the one I had it was fine. I know there's another type where you don't walk on the treadmill. Either way you'll be ok. Better to know what's causing the shortness of breath.

Medically induced stress test?
Yes. I had one. They did an ekg and discovered some weird delay. So they put an IV in and I walked on a treadmill. Then after a time I went into a machine where they looked at my heart. None of it hurt. I wish you well!

successful sleevers?
Excellent thread. I'm having surgery tomorrow and I know I'll get a honeymoon period and I'm going to use that time to learn all I can. I don't want to fall into old habits. Just being on this preop diet has me feeling more in control and that is a great feeling. Thanks everyone.

How long did it take for your insurance to approve you?
I'm shopping at goodwill for sure. Then I'll donate them right back. I have some leggings and sundresses that will last through a few sizes. So glad I'm retired. I can be a baggy bum for a bit!

Does it help? I've considered it. I did buy the pills to take after surgery but I've considered the shot.

Cova. Literally one day. I called them. It did take two weeks for me to get a surgery date though.

Pcos, Hashimoto's, insulin resistance
There's a search option. Type in hashimotos etc and see what old threads there might be. I have hashi too and searched here and found a couple of threads. Also, I've read some about pcos on here as well. Good luck!
