  1. Same! First 1-2 days was rough. 3rd day I felt a bit better. The gas pain was terrible though. But I am struggling to get all my protein intake in. How's that going for you?
  2. Scheduled for April 25th! I'm a bit nervous because my insurance (Aetna POS) hasn't responded with approval or denial decision yet. Less than a week before surgery. Ugh!
  3. Thank you. I’ll definitely get to the bottom of it.
  4. Oh this is great to hear! I will look into Zocdoc and go from there. I am hoping for the same results. Did you have to give 2yr weight history from cop or anything ?
  5. Hi Peeps! New member here. I have started my pre-op requirements ( I have Aetna). My expected surgery date is May 2. However, I am seeing everywhere I will need a recommendation letter for my PCP?? My surgeon hasn’t brought this up yet, but I think I will ask because I do not have a current PCP. Anyone ever experienced this? Can an OB/GYN account for one? Looking for guidance.
