I had my gallbladder removed a couple of years ago. The only signs was back pains, I kept going to the chiropractor. Lol. Anyways, after removal, I remember comparing it to childbirth!! I felt more sore afterwards!! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

I have my EGD scheduled next week Thursday 15th. It seems like everything is coming together before my DS June 22. I was excited about getting it all set up, I forgot to ask how long the procedure for the EGD is for. What was your experience??

Hey everyone please don't get discourage because I just got great news on today that I got approved and they are going to call me with a surgery day so I would like all of those who are waiting for approval to be encourage!!!

Sorry long post.. lol

I started my journey in Jan 2017. I went in for another unfill for my lapband that I've had for 8 years! They asked me if I had considered a revision. I have- but ins didn't cover Bariatric surgeries previously. So- I never checked into it again. They checked for me, and it was covered!!!! Of course, I would have to go through all steps.. so I started my 3 month monitored diet & exercise. Plus psych eval. Then my stuff was submitted in late April. I was busy with work- so I didn't have time to realize how much time has went by. Then realized it's been almost a month. I almost was starting to get frustrated I called ins & they said they haven't even received it. So- today I get a call from the Bariatric center. I got approved!! Mixed emotions big time!! liquid prep diet starts June 8, PreOp starts June 12, Surgery June 22. Um- it's felt like it was taking forever & now it's happening so fast!
