Hello. I'm getting sleeved this month by Dr. Titus Duncan of Peachtree Bariatrics and True Results Atlanta. Has anyone else used him and if so how was your experience? Also has anyone had the procedure in a surgery center vs a major hospital?

I also hve appointment with Dr Hart July 20.I was going to use Dr Ferguson but having problems with ins and brigette his so-called coordinater really messed up my chance with my ins.She submitted my bmi at 34.Not sure why she done that said she was precertifieng me see if my ins covered it.I've been dieting lose 20 pounds was on adipex now I'm off it I gained it back with extra 5 pounds.Now my bmi is 36 so I'm trying a different surgeon going hve to do a peer to peer now cause doctors office exhausted my appeals.Hoping Dr Hart can help even though it's 3 hr trip.If the peer to peer don't wrk guess I'll selfpay.I'm 5'1 190 bmi is 36 and hve hb pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, pcos so I hve alot of health problems. My main concern is my health but to lose 60 or 70 pounds to size 8 or smaller would be a plus.

Good luck everyone one

      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!
