When can I have crawfish again???? And how many?

I am going thru Surgical Specialist of Louisiana in Mandeville. I will meet my surgeon (Dr Redmann) for the 1st time on 9/16. I'm currently in the process of getting my requirements completed. I had my psych eval last week and my sleep study is scheduled for 9/18. Hopefully all goes well and they can send my info to the insurance for approval so I can get a surgery date.

We meet in person once a month at the hospital. It's actually tomorrow night ! I would be happy to ask if others can join. I'll be in touch tomorrow night.

Sept. 23, 2015 Sleeve surgery, Liquids. I am really having problems with most of things I can have. They are all too sweet. I have always used a sugar supplement. Anyone have this problem?

Im from Lake Charles. No one has mentioned Dr.Dominguez in Covington on Northshore? Anyone have expirience with him, or know anyone that has? Thing is...i was going to use Dr.Alveraz in Mexico, he's got major great reviews. I was going to self-pay. Well, Im temporary available for a medicaid card and I found only one Dr in all of Louisiana that accepts it and its Dr Dominguez in Covington, but I can not find ANY reviews, positive or negative? Im at a loss on what to do??? HELP! "/

I don't like the way that place is setup. I didn't like that doctor that's why I went to Alexandria.

I'm new here, hey y'all! In the research phase and praying my insurance will pay. Everywhere I'm reading says BCBS LA doesn't cover the surgery, but my mom was sleeved almost 4 years ago by Dr. Kleinpeter at OLOL and I know for a fact she didn't pay full cost out of pocket so I'm confused. But honestly, I need this so desperately I'd pay full price for it. I'm from Baton Rouge and would go there for the surgery and recovery, but I go to school in New Orleans so I'm hoping I can do my pre-surgery appointments here. Hoping for some answers soon!

Did you have private insurance or medicaid?

Yes, I've had this same "problem" since my surgery last May. I kind of like it because I can't eat sweets like I used to.

Hey guys. I live north of lake Charles and wanted to stay local so I've been working with Dr. Chung in lake Charles. So far he seems legit. He's making me lose 40 lbs before he'll schedule my surgery and despite being on really good LSU insurance I have to pay the 14,000 out of pocket. Anyone used him? Any other near by suggestions for SWLA?

Just wanted to introduce myself. One week out and went to Dr. Borland. Please forgive me for skimming the thread; I hope that I didn't break a cardinal rule! I live on the Westbank and visit the West Jefferson Bariatric Surgery Support Group. Everyone is invited! Here is the link: http://www.wjmc.org/WJMC-Support-Groups.aspx

Thanks everybody! Hope to make lots of friends!
