I have MS. I'm scheduled for the end of September. My Neuro cleared me. As long as you aren't in an active flare and depending on what stage of MS you have you should be fine.

Yes I'm glad the MI board is active. Let's keep it that way! I have hopefully my last weigh in with Beaumont on 8/24. I was approved to meet with the surgeon so that's on 8/29. If all goes well my surgery should be at the end of September!

My doctor didn't put me on a preop diet of liquids only except for the day before surgery. Is this common? I thought everyone is on a liquid diet for two weeks before surgery usually? Mine is only the day before. Anybody else experienced this too?

My aunt just had the procedure done in April and she used Krause. He's the chief surgeon for the department and he's been doing this the longest of all the doctors. I learned that during the info session. Two more days until my eval! I just want to know what the next steps are after that.

Oh and I've met my deductible and co insurance for the year so mine is covered at 100%. I'm happy about that!

After the seminar you will schedule your intake appointments. You will need to see the following:
- psychologist
- dietician
-exercise specialist
-general doc
You will weigh in , get measurements, blood drawn. Depending on your health history additional testing can be ordered by the general doctor. Each specialist must sign off before you can meet the surgeon.
I am required to do another follow up visit with all the specialists before they will sign off.
After meeting the surgeon you will schedule the surgery with their office.
The timeframe will depend on your insurance requirements. Also be prepared to pay $199 for the Beaumont program. It's required for all patients in the program and its not covered by insurance.

Today is my last day of work before surgery Monday. Last two weeks have been crazy and tons of unexpected things have come up but they will survive without me. I have them plenty of notice so feel no guilt about this. It's time for me!

No just the sleeve. It's my surgeon's standard. You can go back sooner however. The program says average is 3 weeks but as we know here each surgeon/program is different.

Yes I will definitely be applying for FMLA! I really appreciate you all responding. It's time to focus on myself for once.

Thanks everyone. I really appreciate the feedback. I don't think I'd be fired but they'll be disappointed lol. I will give them notice though so I can get someone up to speed on my accounts.
I agree employers are not loyal and will eliminate your position in a second. I just saw this happen to a co worker. If that was my case I'd get severance pay as I'm salary.
Thanks again it's leaning me to sticking to my first mind.
