Can't wait till more people decide on getting sleeved in December cuz it suuuure is lonely here.

*cricket chirp*

My son and I are December-sleevers also, but it's funny how every doctor's office procedures are different. We saw our surgeon once to introduce ourselves and for him to verify that we were good choices for the surgery. Then we met with our "patient advocate" who gave us the list of everything we would need to do for pre-pre-op testing (all of which he set up for us) and he told us what we needed to show insurance so that they would approve it, including a letter of approval from our PCPs and a 5 year weight history. We have completed all the hurdles and I'm waiting to hear from the advocate that he is submitting it to the insurance. We won't meet with the surgeon again until the surgery is scheduled.
