mstrice got a reaction from sleeveisa in Just curious
My BMI is 37.9 I am 5’6 235. I have obstructive apnea sleep I use a Cpap, and I have high blood pressure on 4 meds. I have completed my psychological evaluation, EGD, 90 day supervised diet and got my PCP clearance and the letter for cardiac clearance My question is how likely would it be for Cigna to approve me on the first try.

I had RNY, but I was taking two different BP pills (3 meds total, one pill was a combo of two meds). About 2 weeks after surgery my BP crashed. It was actually kind of a scary feeling. I called my surgeon and he had me stop one of my pills (the combo pill).
I followed up with my PCP a couple weeks later and she cut the other pill in half.
A few weeks after that I was approved to cut them out all together.
I was kept on the PPI while I healed, but after a few months I came off those as well.
I now only take 2 Centrum multi Vitamins a day. Blood work is great, BP is well controlled and no GERD. Awesome stuff.

I went in for my surgery taking a lisinopril/hydrochlorothiazide combo...haven't needed one since day of surgery. I also quit taking Celebrex and am having no joint pain, and my fibromyalgia symptoms have all subsided. I'm still taking a low dose of amitriptyline but my PCM plans to wean me off it by Christmas to see if the fibro stays at bay. I'm very hopeful

Well today I was able to eat something for the first time in two weeks of being on a liquid diet. I made one scrambled egg and 1/2 of avocado and let me tell you it was the best egg and avocado I have ever tasted...

You are 5'4", 108 pounds, have an eating disorder and you want to be sleeved?
I'm going to exit quietly.
