    By lotsofkids,

    still a little under the weather...3 days post surgery....still uncomfortable getting up or down.
     
    Overall, doing well. Made a strawberry shake for breakfast. skim milk, egg and a few frozen strawberries. Drank 1/2 cup. Appetite is still not up...that's a good thing. I hope it stays suppressed. Robin Alheit sent me a beautiful flower basket...just outstanding. We spoke on the phone and she is very encouraging. Hopefully, we can meet when I am up and about.
     
    The diareah is not a pleasant side effect.....be sure to protect yourself with something as it usually gives no warning....yuck.
     
    I suppose solids...will solve that issue LOL
     
    smiles...diane

    May 17th.....Cleveland Clinic told me that my Insurance has been approved!!!!! Can you believe it! Yipee.
     
    With my low BMI I was expecting to be denied or in for a lot of appeals.....anyhow...they not only told me I was approved...but I can have my surgery done on Tuesday May 23....less than a week.
     
    Next available would be in July......so looks like I am heading to surgery on the 23rd...before I get cold feet.
     
    Husband is NON supportive....anti surgery.....wants me to sign a paper before the surgery that I am doing this against his wishes and he is not responsible in any way....AND that I accept all health problems or financial burdens that are associated with the surgery or might be future complications arising from having the surgery. Gimmee a break....23yrs and 5 kids....thanks a lot for your support and understanding.

    I have previously completed the seminars and workshops ....Today I met with the Surgeon @ Cleveland Clinic. I just barely make the BMI requirement of 35...but hopefully with my strong apnea, I will get insurance approval. Now I need to go down the list of all the other checkups and bloodwork that is needed to be cleared for the next step.
