Did you get your surgery date before your psych eval because im already approved through my insurance but the my surgeons office won't give me a date until i do all this clearance stuff. And im just wondering the process is this normal.

Yes, I had my surgery date before me psych eval but was told if the couselor felt something was wrong, a red flag would be given to the surgeon and my surgery could be delayed or canceled. I think my process is moving faster because I am paying cash and not have to go through the insurance red tape.

I was "approved" before my psych eval or any other work ups but was not allowed to have a surgery date until all tests were done and I lost 10% of excessive weight. Now I just have to keep off the weight and wait for December 6th.

      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!
