  1. Thank you very much for replying! I’m glad to hear that there was no issues for you, just more paperwork needed. I was really nervous when my husband started looking for a new job! The wait has already felt like a long time, I didn’t want this change to hold things up longer!
  2. Hi! My husband may be changing jobs next month and so our insurance would change. (Both insurances cover wls.) I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this and if it delayed their surgery at all? Thank you.
  3. Prayers went up.
  4. Sounds like you’re doing great! I really appreciated the update. I’m pre rny and I liked hearing how you are doing!
  5. I have terrible Gerd. It’s. So. Bad. ? Originally I was going to have the nissen fundiplication surgery for Gerd but the surgeon talked to me at length about getting gastric bypass instead. I’m still pre op at this point, but my main motivator in this process has been to try and stop my severe Gerd. (Also I’m quite heavy.) I’ve heard from quite a few doctors at this point who recommended gastric bypass for greatly improving or curing Gerd. I’ve seen some people I follow on Instagram who have had sleeve surgeries revised to a bypass due to the Gerd the sleeve caused them. It’s definitely worth discussing with your doctor.
