  1. Life altering diarrhea, and my urine smells like protein shakes. Monday cant get here soon enough. Ugh. Lost 12 lbs so far on liver shrink diet, so there's that.
  2. That sucks. I suffered a few "ball drops" during the process. My advice is stay on them. Thats what I did. Insist that you see another shrink, or whatever it takes to get your paperwork submitted. Talk with your surgeon if you can. He can make things happen if he wants to. Good luck.
  3. Thats my week one plan. Week two is 5 shakes a day.
  4. Day three of liver shrink and surgery on the 16th.
  5. Great job young lady.
  6. Approved! Friday the 13th surgery?
  7. Oh my goodness. Ugh!! I hope it goes fast for you.
  8. So finally all clear and submitted to insurance.
  9. Yea. Me too. That, and sugar free ice pops are on the way.
  10. Great. thanks. I'm trying to get everything I need for after surgery.
  11. I think thats just part of having grandchildren. Great memories, and fun for them. Now get back in there, and wait for Christmas to slip up again.

  13. Ask your doctor if he thinks this could be anxiety related. I used to have debilitating panic attacks. Its a genetic condition that several family members have. Once we figured it out, it was easily eliminated. May be worth asking about.
  14. 52. Having it done next month
  15. Mine was very easy. More like he was feeling me out to make sure I knew what I was getting in to. Sorry yours was rough.
  16. Get rid of them and don't look back.
  17. Well just got a call from the cardiologist. Not clear. Lol. They want a stress test. I'm out of sick time. I've used it all for these appointments. Ugh
  18. So I cleared cardio today with no further testing. The cardiologist didn't see anything that bothered him, and signed off. Completed, and sent back the sleep study yesterday. Second meeting with the surgeon next week. I can't wait to start the liver shrink!
  19. Hoping for the first week in November.
  20. I'm 52. I've been up and down forever. Been wanting to do this for several years
  21. I'm not sure who is requiring it. They have asked for more testing. Ugh
  22. Not cleared, cardio. Ugh.
