I thought about that after I said something some time trying to do the right thing is not good Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

Will by reading the FMLA laws and it being a medical necessity and my letter stating it's medical necessity I should not be denied... but you know how some people are but I have work so hard doing my paperwork and I've come this far and I feel like my health is important to I have my mind made up but I'ma wait just to see if the FMLA papers get approved thanks ladies Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

After all the paperwork waiting and getting approved I try to do the right thing and let my supervisor know now they want to tell me to wait to January to have the surgery will remind me I work for the hospital so I'm told that November and December is not a good time at the hospital well I'm looking out for my health I am a PCT Tech so in order to take care of patients in the hospital I need to be trying to take care of myself and by me waiting to January my benefits we'll go back to the same I will have higher payment to pay out when I only have 2,900 to pay out now.... I still went own and files for my FMLA hoping I get approved I am so frustrated now. Because if I wait to the beginning of the year I will have to start all over with my deductible and I will have to probably resubmit all my papers Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App

I'm a nurse's assistant and I haven't had the surgery but when I do I'm going to take my 4 to 6 weeks because having to pull some of them patients up here lately has killing my back so if I was you I would take as many weeks as they give you..good luck Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App
