Yes, thanks. I finished chemo in August 2017. I've been good so far! I think this surgery will also help me get better in tune with my body. I had a huge tumor in my pelvis, and didn't know because I carry my weight in my midsection. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I have an odd situation as well, I had ovarian cancer, and my gyn onc and I talked about it so I understand! I gained 60 from diagnosis through end of chemo! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thanks! My appointment is January 23rd, but was supposed to be January 9th. I was like...great. ENJOY YOUR VACATION, THIS IS JUST MY LIFE! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I know. Just breathe. They do give you something to calm you before surgery usually so one minute you're freaking out then you're like.....okay.....yes....I can do this.....lol. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I know it's not the same surgery but I had 4 surgeries in 2017 for ovarian cancer including two twilight procedures. You'll be just fine. Before you even know it you'll be waking up and ready to start your new life. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I got my approval on January 15th! Now I'm awaiting clearance from the pulmonologist because of cpap compliance. I have insomnia so some nights I would take it off before I hit the 4 hour mark and all that is counting against me, which I had no idea about. I have an extremely mild case of apnea. .5 or less "incidents" per night, yet I'm stick waiting to schedule while he's out on vacation. [emoji35] Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I wish this was the case for me. I have BCBS Anthem NY. I did my 6 months, all losses, got my evals and everything. My paperwork was sent to them 1/5/18. I've called EVERY day and as of this morning, 1/15/18 it is still "pending". I'm so aggravated! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm new as well awaiting approval from BCBS Empire NY. Paperwork was submitted 01.05.18, still pending as of this morning. I did a 6 month supervised program I've waited long enough! Ugh. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
