Ok I'm confused, my coordinator informed my wife and I that we are approved, on Wednesday the 4th, but I just received a letter from my Insurance company dated 5/2/11 stating that a request for the surgery has been placed and that they need all of the things we've been preparing for the past three months, it also has the surgery date 5/11/11 and then it says we have 45 days to comply. My office is closed on Friday so I have to wait until Monday to call, does anyone know what's going on, are we approved or not. *edit we also received a call from the Hospital to pre register and when I called, they said we are already registered.

You will have to wait until Monday to know for sure but I think you are APPROVED. Your coordinator likely talked to the iinsurance company after the letter had been mailed and provided them with whatever else they needed. I would call the coordinator FIRST on Monday and tell her about the letter and see what she says. She can call the insurance company and find out if they are missing anything else or if this is just one of those times where everything crossed in the mail

Congratulations as it sounds like you are about to be sleeved!!! whoohooo :party4:

Ok so I just got off the phone with my coordinator and she said that the insurance company automatically sends the letter once the process has began, and not to worry my wife and I are approved! So looks like we will be getting sleeved on Wednesday God- willing!!

      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.

        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.

      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!
