During the the 6 mos. it does seem as though you won't be approved - but once your last appointment is over with it seems like everything happens over night after that. Prayer really is a positive tool. I was approved approx. a week after 6th appointment and the next day my surgery was scheduled for the 28th. I'm on the pre-op diet! Everything will work out like its supposed to. I can so relate to where you are - I have been struggling with my weight in and out of doctors' offices for years as well as the 6 months of appointments just to get approved. Good luck!

I have my surgery penciled in for April 22 ( 2 days before my birthday).. Just because i have to do my work schedule 2 months in advance. Have talked in depth with my dietician and she sees no reason for me not to be approved... But final say is up to insurance.. Figured a month would give me plenty of time if i have to appeal or supply more paperwork.

      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!
