Surgery W/aceves March 30!

[bnorms 2]

Hello! After much research I have decided to get sleeved by Dr. Aceves in Mexicali.

I have Cigna but they will not cover the procedure because I had 6 months of a supervised weight loss attempt that was unfortunately spread over 8 months due to bizarre scheduling. Had I known I was going to go for WLS later, I would have scheduled the appointments more carefully!!

I am leaving for a 30 day cruise around South America in two weeks with my parents and my 2 year old daughter. It will be HARD to not gain weight with the constant buffets on the cruise ship. Then when we get back to the states, I will start my pre-op diet and have surgery on March 30.

I live near San Diego so luckily I won't have to pay for airfare. While my parents are not necessarily supportive, I seemed to have calmed their fears about Mexico and the surgery itself after presenting my research this evening. My mother will be babysitting my daughter and my dad is going to the hospital with me.

I am super excited! Looking forward to the rest of my life

I do have one concern though. If my understanding is clear, if any complications arise from the procedure....they will be out of pocket costs? I am worried something will go terribly wrong and I will have a $100k hospital bill!!

That's exciting. I am scheduled for March 30th too...with Dr. Rodriguez in Juarez, Mexico.
