Recommended Posts

Now the real wait begins! My PA emailed me to let me know that she has submitted my paperwork to the insurance and they tell her to wait at least 15 business days to hear back from them.

I have Anthem BCBS, so if you have the same insurance...how long is the real wait?

I have California blue shield. There were soooo many hoops to jump through! 6 month weight loss with daily food/ exercise journals, weekly weigh ins at the doctor plus monthly physician visit. pulmonary function test, ecg, stress test, upper gi, abdominal ultrasound, chest xray, nutritionist clearance, psychiatric clearance, medical clearance (blood panel/physical). I had my first visit July 17. Glad all the pre op work was worth it and i finally have a date!

      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!
