  2. Mine was the same. I read so many stories on here about people who were up within hours and taking multiple laps around their surgery wards and feeling fine. I was taking my pain meds every 4 hours on the dot and couldn't lay down because the pain was so awful trying to sit up again. Around day 4 things really started improving and within a week I was barely touching my meds. I hope you're feeling better by now!
  3. My insurance denied some of my claims due to a misspelling of my name so a bill popped into my account for $99,000 ish. Obviously they are reprocessing it with my name spelled directly but that was a shock to see! Here's my itemized bill.

  7. Just got the call to schedule today! They offered me May 29th actually but I feel like I had emotionally prepared for a June date so I chose the 6th instead. Now to begin the countdown to surgery!

  9. Good luck to you too! I'm sure it will be here before we know it! Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app
  10. I'm hoping 3-4 weeks is an overestimate! I actually go out of the country a day before my approval is guaranteed done so if it comes right on time it'll be a pain to finish the scheduling from across the Atlantic! Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

  12. I just submitted everything to insurance last week and suspect a June date. They said 3-4 weeks for approvals and then 4-6 weeks scheduled after that. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

  15. I'm 31, gonna be 32 in June, and I'm hoping for my surgery end of May. I started my whole process back in September, but my insurance requires 6 months of nutrition phone call appointments. I have my final call this Wednesday so I'm going to get my surgery date as soon as insurance approves! Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app
