i think it depends on what insurance you have.

I have aetna and my surgery was approved in less than 24 hours. I definitely hassled them and had an insurance coordinator with my surgeon's office... so that helped too...

I still had to schedule 2 mos out after insurance approval. Due to the surgeons schedule.

Were they doing your blood sugar, or your HBA1c?
It's good to keep an eye on it while on meds and going through surgery, as for most people their blood sugar plummets, and it becomes very easy to experience lows. I experienced my first low 2 days into my 90 day pre-op diet.

sleevemebabyy reacted to Introversion in Thyroid & Diabetes I need advice please :)
I've been hypothyroid for 12 years. I was also pre-diabetic. I was sleeved a little over 2 years ago, lost 100+ pounds, and have easily maintained my weight loss with decent food choices and exercise.
My metabolic rate also seems higher today than it was before surgery. I can maintain my weight on 2000+ calories daily now. Prior to surgery, I could gain weight rapidly and fiercely.
Here's the catch: I was a dreadfully slow loser. I lost an average of 6 pounds monthly with my sleeve, possibly due to my hypothyroidism and insulin resistance. However, I'm pleased with my results.

I have type 1 Diabetes as well as hypothyroidism, and my Endocrinologist and surgeon are really excited for me to have my procedure. Blood work for my thyroid has come back within range the last few times I've had blood work, and my A1C was 7.9 (not the best, but not the worst). I thought me endocrinologist and surgeon would be more concerned with my diabetes and hypothyroidism, but both of them have reassured me that this surgery will help with those things, so not to worry. I hope everything goes well for you!!
