  6. Hi ya'll I would love to share my journey and hear yours if your from Texas. Im having my sleeve done June 20th.
  7. i used them and it was super easy. My dr office recommended them. And i got approved for surgery. It was a $40 co-pay.
  8. Hi, Im June 20th! And also a Texan. Im in DFW area. Are you nervous???
  9. I have BCBS PPO Texas and it took 4 days after i did my Sleep Study,nutrition (over phone), Psy-eval (over phone). It was quick. I do have BMI 36 and Sleep Apnea.
  10. Hello, Can ya'll give me suggestions on what I should have prepared at home after surgery?
  11. it is absurd! i think your right too about Doc reporting me, he won't. Thats a good idea ill bring my pump with me and just pump before surgery and i should be fine. Im not going to cut him off cold turkey and have a angry baby because BCBS says so. Its weird these "rules" insurance companies make up, they have too many lawyers calling the shots. Ill just be happy when surgery is done, I haven't did anything for me in ages and its my time. Ill let you know what happens. I should be having surgery on may 30th just gotta confirm sitter and a few things but its a "Go"!
  12. Idk either. The website www.obesitycoverage.com says bcbs texas wont cover if pregnant or lactating...idk could be bad info
  13. What if i my boobs leak during surgery!?
  14. Hi! Ok great. I guess ill tell the dr whats going on. Its hard weaning! My sob eats mainly solids now but still wants boob at night....
  15. Has anyone experienced this? I weaned my son but still lactating a little.should i not say anything ? Someone mentioned if your lactatint bcbs wont pay for surgery
  16. Im thinking about it too.indid see he had license taken away because of alcohol issue.but thats a long time ago and he did rehab etc. I just want to know if he is goid at mini sleeve procedure. ..seems like a newer procedure...lets us all know what happens good luck!!
  17. Open youtube video explains better
  18. Basically he goes through belly button and cuts, staples, and takes out pieces of stomach through belly button. Less invasive and out pait surgery. Less scars.
