That's wonderful... You got accepted by your insurance first? I have to go through a bunch of clearances and nutrition appointments. I'm going to my last one on Friday and then they will submit it to my insurance. Best wishes on your journey. Sent from my N9132 using the BariatricPal App

Yes... I forgot to mention 2 years ago I had multiple clots on each lung. It was a horrible experience which really makes me scared to have the surgery. I trust my surgeon and I'm moving forward. Sent from my N9132 using the BariatricPal App

I am hoping to have my sleeve surgery in December. I have to give my self shots for 30 days pre op. I have a blood clotting disorder and I don't have a choice. After the 30 days I will go back to my oral blood thinner Xarelto. Sent from my N9132 using the BariatricPal App

There is a series on YouTube called Fat Doctors. The name is annoying but the show is great. It follows Shore Summers and his bariatric team in England. It's kind of like My 600 lb Life it's a really great show and I'm addicted. I'm waiting for new Episodes but it gives you loads of info. I hope some of you watch.

Please excuse the typos I was typing faster than I thought. Just so excited to find someone who is going through this. I have posted a few times and not many people are dealing with this. It helps to talk about it with those who understand. Sent from my N9132 using the BariatricPal App

Hello.. I truly understand what you're going through. I have Factor V Leiden a blood clotting disorder. Two yrs ago I had multiple clots on both if my lungs. I am taking a blood thinner for the rest of my life. My hematologist and surgeon are fine with me having the sleeve. I'm am hoping for a late December surgery. I was told that I would fully be taken care of before and after surgery. I have to give myself shots of heparin for 30 days prior to surgery. I'm very afraid of reclotting but I desperately need this and I willing to take the chance. I hope that everything works out for you. Sent from my N9132 using the BariatricPal App
