All my blocks are checked. Just waiting on my DR to send my records and supervised diet to my WL surgeons office for submission to Ins. I called Wed and they said I was top priority and that should have everything faced by next week. So ready now! I hadn't made up my mind 100% until going to a concert and I could barley get in and out of the seats!

Hoping we all hear something soon!!

Still waiting on approval myself...the waiting game is killing me and it has only been 5 days. I called my insurance company and they said if I didn't hear anything by 2/6 to call back. Fingers crossed!

Now I'm getting frustrated. Received an email from my WLS doctors office stating my Doc still hasn't sent them my records and paperwork. Ugggghhhh! I called again today. I know I need to be patient. It's sooooo hard knowing I'm so close.

I had to call my doctors office and e-mail them 5 times before they finally sent the records over to the clinic. You can't assume it will get done. They are super busy. You have to babysit everyone. Lesson I had to learn.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
