Every day will get better, promise! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I am day 5 post op..only one incision is giving me the blues..makes it hard for me f9r me to stand, sit, or move in genreal...its frustrating... But I'm taking it day by day Sent from my SM-N930T using the BariatricPal App I was the same way. Moving at night REALLY made me aware of it. I wouldn't cough or sneeze, and I suffer from allergies pretty bad. Even when I wanted to laugh I would have to take it easy and breath through it. Now I'm 16 days out and I barely notice it. I thought the one closest to the band of my bra would give me more issues, but nope...it's the one I assume he pulled my stomach out of, almost in the center of my stomach. You are doing great! Are you able to get all of your Protein and Water in? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App yes yes yes!!! I ask my Dr about it. she said yes they pulled my stomach out of it and she stitched it twice one was my tissues and then my skin. so, pretty much it's the deep stitch that kills me...and drains my energy so bad... But thanks chickenchick I'm now waiting my 16days out to feel some what normal again!! how are you with protein and water intake? Sent from my SM-N930T using the BariatricPal App

Everyone's will be different as well as different states/hospitals/physicians equals different rules... my surgeons fee is 20% since I have not met my pop cost as of yet 20% is $400 which has to be paid before my date was set... then there is a facility fee from the hospital which is also 20% or what is needed to complete my out of pocket cost...

I'm glad you finally got approved! I hope it doesn't set you back any but if it does I hope it's not for too long. Keep us posted so we can pray for you/send good thoughts - whatever you believe in. I have an appointment at the hospital on 11/11 to do pre-op stuff. I feel like my life is full of appointments...had a pap today, mammogram is ordered. Have to see my PCP before my surgery for a follow up to other stuff. It's never ending. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Yes prayer is needed! Also, what Pre-Op stuff? also, is your Pcp ordering a mammogram and pap? Sent from my SM-N930T using the BariatricPal App The pre-op stuff is like to get the soap/wash for the shower the night before surgery. And any additional blood work or whatever they may need. Go over meds, what to take and not to take day of surgery. I feel like I already know all that, but I have to go regardless. But it's actually at the hospital, not the surgeon's office. My PCP just wants to go over my lipid panel, separate from the surgery stuff. But I was due for my annual well women exam soon, since my surgery is the 18th I wanted to knock that out, so that appointment was with a Gynecologist today and he ordered the mammogram. I hope I can knock that out before surgery too. I'm waiting on a call from the diagnostic place to get that scheduled. The only thing that has to do with surgery is the appointment at the hospital. I just brought up the other stuff because I'm complaining. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Ok, I was like wow I don't think I have to do that again just for survey! lol yes since my hospital COE is 4hours away from house, i actually had my pre op and post op done in the same day toward the beginning of the process. they supplied me with everything I need before I go into surgery, and gave me 2 bottles of anti baterical soap Sent from my SM-N930T using the BariatricPal App

Apparently they are running behind. I called yesterday and the rep said most are being approved on the 14th or 15th business day. They have til Friday for me. This is so stressful and time is going so slow lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Just keep on them and your Dr's office! Sent from my SM-N930T using the BariatricPal App
