I had RNY June 24th. A week after I had 9 days of cluster migraines with aura. My surgeon assumed I was dehydrated & I was infused with a liter of saline. So far no more since the infusion! (Knock on wood) if you are continuing to get them, I don't know. Sent from my SM-G925V using the BariatricPal App

Congratulations!!

I live in Michigan but work for a company in NJ and I know they have Short Term Disability there. I know they will pay even if I don't live in the state as long as my employer is there but does anyone know if they cover Gastric Bypass? And will my employer know what type of surgery I'm having (all they know is abdominal surgery) if I file a claim?? Any insight into NJ STD would be helpful! Surgery is June 24th Thanks!

That's one of the all time greatest post!! I'm freaking out a little myself & do glad I read that! Thanks!! Sent from my SM-G925V using the BariatricPal App

I think I've overloaded myself on info!! I had to take a break for a few weeks, my mind was spinning all the time! I'm just really ready for the 24th to get here--I've bought a bunch of stuff for after and only have a few more items on my list. I'm ready!! I just need the date to hurry up!!

@@crazygoose How are you feeling now??

@@taramarie523 I just looked up your post--great comments for sure!! here's the link of anyone wants it http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/364426-anyone-not-telling-anyone-about-their-surgery/

I have told my sister & a few very close friends who will be helping with my recovery. I'll tell my parents (in their 80's) this week sometime, but I believe they will be fine with it. I have not told my boss, he has made less than favorable comments in the past about someone else possibly getting bypass, so all he knows is I will probably need abdominal surgery in the coming months. I'm having a little bit of a hard time justifying this deception because he's really a great guy to work for, but for now I'm not telling him. Had my surgery consult yesterday--endoscope on April 26th--hoping for a surgery date end of May/beginning of June!!

I had my surgery consult yesterday--as everyone has said...TONS of information!! It was a great appointment & I really like my surgeon--my PCP recommended him & said he would have him operate on himself. He ordered a mammogram (scheduled tomorrow morning), a chest xray (I just have to go & get it done) and and endoscope...which he didn't have an opening on his schedule until April 26th...bummed about that because they can't send my file to the insurance company for approval until all my test results are in. So I'm hoping for late May/early June for a surgery date. But my surgeon is taking some time off in both May & June..ugh!! Wish I could click my heels together & it was 3 weeks from now!!

Just wondering if I can stay at my house alone after surgery? I have great friends to come check on me, but I really think I'll be much more comfy at my own house. (They really want me to stay with them) Thoughts? ? Sent from my SM-G925V using the BariatricPal App

I found it.... but you need spaces in it.... pegraes wls newbies

@@pegrae you're thinking about coming to my state for surgery! Too bad I'm 3 1/3 hrs north of there. Good Luck on your decision!

It definitely depends on what insurance company you have. I have Priority & others have told me they were approved pretty quickly. (Of course I imagine the ones who were not approved are probably not on the boards? ) Good Luck with your approval! ! Sent from my SM-G925V using the BariatricPal App

I had my psych evaluation on Thursday --it was really nothing. The Dr asked me some questions for about 20 min, then I had to take the MMPI. It's a long weird True/False test. Just answer truthfully & you will be fine. Good Luck!# Sent from my SM-G925V using the BariatricPal App
