  1. I'm scheduled for my RNY on 5/18. This morning I found out that UnitedHealthcare has denied my surgery as experimental. I've filed an appeal but have been told it's unlikely to be approved. My reason for surgery is not weight - I have gastroparesis. I need this surgery. It's the only viable fix for me, but because my insurance plan says no bariatric procedure, that's it, or so I'm told. Amy recommendations? I need this surgery. I've gone through all the testing because the first time my Dr's office called the insurance they were told yes, go ahead, I'm covered. Now surgery is denied. I'm sick to my stomach, heartbroken, nervous. I hate this. I just want the surgery.
  2. I'll be having my surgery sometime in March too! Still getting through all the pre-op appointments, and then I'll be scheduled. Hoping for around the 15th, so I can be back work for April 1st.
  3. Hi all, this is my first post. I have gastroparesis and am going in for an RNY in March. I've always had the pre-planned mindset, and I'm worried about the clear liquid weeks since I'm allergic to beef and beef protein is in alot of foods. No hospital jello for me! What is the normal type of protein supplement those first two weeks? I'm going to start cooking and freezing chicken bone broth soon, so I can eat easily. Thanks, and I'm looking forward to getting to know y'all!
