Another Insurance Question/plea...



Recommended Posts

Just read the insurance question post by Bos123 and I'm starting to get really paranoid and apprehensive. I'm a teacher and although my salary is pretty good for my field, I sure as heck can not afford to have major complications resulting in thousands of dollars of debt. No way! My school system insurance plan excluded everything related to WLS last year so if something happens the bills come to me. This is the reason i decided to go to Mexico in the first place. i was prepared to pay for follow up care to my PYP but the thought of bills for complications scares me.

Please, can anyone recommend an insurance company that offers cross border insurance? I'm starting to think that if I can't get this I might have to cancel my Nov. 19th surgery with Dr. Ponce. What are the rest of you doing? Help!

I think Seven corners requires that the hospital have the JCI Accreditation.. You may want to double check that.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
