I'm Dec 1st but I'm bypass can I still join? Nice to have people going thru surgery while I am and I can't find a Dec FB group to join. Sent from my SM-G550T1 using the BariatricPal App

I agree. I have pretty good I insurance but I never go to the emergency dept for a cold (or head lice! ) I sure don't ream out the ED doc because "last week the other doctor gave me oxytocin for my hurt food and now you want me to take Motrin?" The majority of my noncompliance case managed patient are on Medicare. They know everything about everything and they sure don't need my advice, unless it means they will get more pain medication... I want to add that this kind of entitlement is a cultural phenomena. It's about maintaining control. So it's strongest in uneducated families who have lived in poverty of generations. Wow!

I'm not sure where Gilbert is? Are we far from each other? Sent from my SM-G550T1 using the BariatricPal App

No. My insurance didn't even pay for my medically necessary IUD. I've gotten used to ignoring them and paying out of pocket. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Wow congratulations, my insurance will pay for a breast reduction if medically necessary. So I don't know if that's like a life or not I haven't researched it yet. I'm a fighter lol and will fight my insurance double time to get them reduced after surgery Sent from my SM-G550T1 using the BariatricPal App

Interestingly enough I make the same experience with the private patients (German healthcare system). Of course most of the patients aren't really this way.I take issue with you're Medicaid statement.. I'm retired on Medicare and because my income is so low I qualify for AZ healthcare the equivalent of medicaid, and I'm grateful to have the extra insurance. So not all medicaid subscribers are not whiners. Sent from my SM-G550T1 using the BariatricPal App

@@Talle how is the liquid diet going? Sent from my XT1585 using the BariatricPal App I didn't have to do the liquid diet because I had complications my hiatal hernia was trapped in my band and my band had started corroding, my port was sideways. So I go into my surgery at the 266 Sent from my SM-G550T1 using the BariatricPal App

Wow...i'm really not happy you're going. You are very encouraging to me. I appreciate your incite and intend to listen. I'm totally going to follow the rules. Its the people who have been here the longest that I even give ear too. I'm sorry you are leaving. Sent from my Nexus 6 using the BariatricPal App I'm so new I haven't even had surgery yet. My date is December 1st. I spend my time searching for veteran threads because I need the expertise of those who have been successful and have maintained their WL. I don't know you very well Kindle but from what I can gather you and the other vets in this forum have what I need to learn, firsthand knowledge. I hope you will rethink your exit and don't let stupid people push you out. Other newbies need your and other strong vets experience. Sent from my SM-G550T1 using the BariatricPal App

Congrats! It's a shame he wants to ding you for more surgery and money. I have united healthcare and they approved me for bypass in 10 days due to complications with my band. I'm wondering if I can get them to pay for my tummy reduction. What did you do to get your insurance to pay for yours. I'd really like your help if I may Sent from my SM-G550T1 using the BariatricPal App
