The nausea and reflux is horrible I'm trying not to regret this surgery Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

I got sleeved yesterday as well, four incisions. How are you feeling? I had horrible indigestion in which I had to burp up, it was bad. Other than that I would've been in a very minimal amount of pain. Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App I'm feeling a little sore. Very little burping. Getting in and out of bed is a little hard, other than that, I'm ok. I'm wishing you a speedy recovery, and much success on this incredible journey!

Hi All. I was sleeved on yesterday. Upon waking up, I had a serious headache from the anesthesia. The worst part was the nausea and I was burping like crazy. I didn't feel better until I vomited a little. Anybody else experience this? Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

Your surgeon is more than likely verifying that your insurance covers the surgery and if so. What are the requirements. Your insurance requirements normally dictate your path. Some plans require supervised visits, evaluations and other things, some don't. Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

Best wishes. I would wait a week and then follow up if you don't hear anything. I waited two weeks and then called the surgeon's office and miraculously my decision had just came through. Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

I wonder if you may have overreacted to someone who just didn't know what else to say, maybe even thought they were giving you a compliment and now their job could possibly be on the line.

I'm going to go ahead and file for STD and hope to return after two weeks. I just started a new job and didn't want to take off so soon but in the words of my husband " do whatever the doctor says do" Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

April 19th date given today. I'm in GA Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

I'm seriously considering only taking 5 days off of work to avoid filling FMLA. Three days off and two days working from home actually. I have a desk job. I personally think the sooner I can get back into the swing of things the better it will be for me but I've never had this surgery before. I've heard a a variety of stories and would love to hear from some of you. Thank you.

You look great, what are your stats in each picture? Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

The surgery center where I'm having my sleeve procedure has axed the lap band procedure from their list completely, not an option. Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

Did you have surgery? Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

Received my approval...had to call the hospital to check on it and miraculously the approval had "just came in". Anywho, I have to meet for a group nutritional class next Tuesday and then I'll get my surgery date. Best wishes to the others waiting, I know the anxious feeling.

All monthly visits have taken place, evaluations completed, referral from primary doc, next up, insurance decision. Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

I would definitely check with the person who submits the insurance. My patient rep (at the surgery center) picks up the phone to call the insurance rep to see if certain documentation is acceptable Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

@@BarrySue that's a great idea Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

Although my insurance doesn't require a letter of necessity from physician the hospital where I'm having surgery does. Well I asked my ob-gyn to do it for me and he said that he doesn't do those I'll have to get with my primary care physician. Well I've only seen her once and in the past and I'm not sure if she'll even do it. Has anyone ever ran into this? Where did you get your letter of necessity from?
