So today, I went to the dr and got my date! They are sending off for my insurance approval tomorrow, I'm praying I get approved!! I don't see why I would get denied. My date will be July 17th!! I'm so excited! :)

Congratulations on the great news. Hopefully, everything will go well for you. I don't see my doctor until Thursday. In my conversation with one of the nurses last week, she said my surgery was approved. I think the referral letter my primary care physician submitted on my behalf had a lot to do with it.

Congrats Bentley Jade! That is about a week after me. I go on July 9, which seems like a long time from now, although it really is not.

Congrats SDB1147!

Thank you all!! :) I'm very excited and anxious! It does seem like forever away, but then again I'm not stressing that because it was JUST Christmas yesterday it seems! Lol.

And I didn't ask my doctor about a referral letter, perhaps I should mention that! My doctors nurse is great, she's so involved in everything so maybe ill talk to her about that!!

Thanks again y'all! :)

My first visit was April 11th. So between 4/11 and today, I did my psych eval & nutrition class. My labwork was done on my first visit. So now just waiting for insurance approval! :)

      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!
