I'm from Lyndhurst, I am also a Dr. Schrope patient. I agree,Meredith and the entire staff are fantastic. I was in Valley for my endoscopy yesterday and if that was any indication of the care at Valley, we are in good hands.

Julie called me today to let me know insurance gave approval! I already had my date but now they can erase the temporary circle that was drawn around it.

Whoo hoo!

Awesome!! HOw far in advance did you schedule your surgery before getting your approval?

My 1st apt with the dr was on 9/12. Met with nut and psych on 9/18. Scheduled that day for surgery for 10/16 but was considered temporary till Julie heard back. Had 1st apt w/ gastro on 9/20 and endo set for 9/28. Preop apt on 10/9. Jyst flying through the process. My friend has same insurance so I already knew through her what I would need and that insurance covers surgery 100%.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
