You know we already dread waiting the 6 or 7 mo to do all this hoop jumping but to have to wait for a Dr. To just sign an evaluation and fax it over is just ridiculous. I had my Pysc eval on the 11th and she said they would have it faxed by the end if the week....well guess what no she didn't. Know a 1 1/2 week later dr Dr. Is out til Saturday and then he may sign it and fax it. HELLO you would think the nurse that did the evaluation would know how important and how anxious I am being that she had WLS a few years ago. Just had to vent, I guess another week won't kill me but I sure don't like it...

I remember wishing every day was surgery day for months... the time did go by quick though and now I'm 2 months post-op and it feels like my surgery was a long time ago...

Hang in there!

I understand your frustration... I think we all do... I hated the hoop jumping.. You know what annoyed me the most? Was having to spend the night in the hospital for the sleep apnea test. OMG I wanted to pluck out those peoples eyelashes one by one lol! Hang in there it will happen before you know it!!

Oh well I'm just sssooooo ready to hv this done and start my "new" life

They probably already have you penciled in on their schedule and know the time needed to get the insurance approval done so are getting to it as needed. The numbers of these is rising quickly so they pace themselves as needed.

Maybe your right. I did call my coordinator and she said that is all she is waiting on so maybe she will get it Monday.

      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! 😞
