  1. Just 2 more days till surgery day. Suddenly I am terrified. I have no doubt I want this I am just scared of the pain. I am in recovery from addiction so i will not take pain meds home from the hospital and I am scared I will need them. Or suffer from to much pain.


  2. not my insurance but i have heard of it being this way... more and more insurances are getting rid of the medically supervised diet requirement. Yes it should make it easier you will likely only need a letter of necessity for your PCP.

    However, your surgeon may require more than your insurance like Psych clearance.

    Congratulations on your decision and best of luck in your journey.


  3. My suggestion would be to be prepared to answer questions and reassure them that this is the best option for you. You might be pleasantly surprised.

    I did not keep this a secret from anyone. I told everyone of any importance in my life and almost everyone has been amazingly supportive. My husband was a bit skeptical at first but once i explained it to him and he read some literature on it he has been totally on board. The only person who has been negative was my father in law and I just ignored him (he is always so negative anyway).
