Anyone out there new here and don't really get responses on my stuff! So just wondering if I'm doing something wrong gere

No I am new here too and it does take awhile to get noticed. I just keep harassing people!

Are you thinking about getting the sleeve or have you already scheduled your surgery?

I don't see you doing anything wrong - welcome!

You could update the information in your profile so we can get all up in your business get to know you better.

Yeah I think there are a number of things that have to do with it. Time of day, certain times of day may be busier and your stuff may move down faster and get missed. Repetition, a lot of questions we all have, have been asked before and sometimes people get tired of repeating (only what I have read) If you do have a question though, I do recommend using the search bar up above and searching for the main topic.... Instead of "Will I have bad reflux" just put "reflux" or "Does anyone have xxxx insurance" just put the insurance name etc... I have found a lot of information. I also recommend finding "friends" a support group that relates to you (I found a nursing support group, because I am a nursing student) I have found a few people who either I have enjoyed following their story, or they have similarities to me. I try to send a note every few weeks or so just to see how they are doing. Hang in there, this is a great group I really enjoy it and I have received a lot of information.

Just got approval from insurance surgeon date may 8th

I'm new too. No date yet I am trying to get through 3 psy appts (I would pick the one super psy doc who's requirements way above the average!). and a nut appt before I get my final appt to schedule my surgery. Surgery for you is like next week! Exciting

I see you! Lol! Congratulations on getting your approval and date!!

Thanks I'm so excited!! What does the Seurgoe

What does the surgeon do when you meet with them???

Mine did my weight and went over goals. We discussed the surgery and what exactly it would entail, as well as what post surgery life would be like. I also did a preop consult with a group and went over drain care, pain management, food do's and donts, medication do's and donts. I asked a ton of questions!! I was given sample menus and a timeline of when I could begin introducing different stages of foods.

Thanks so much

No problem!

How long after meeting with the surgeon did it Yale to get a date?

I started meeting with the surgeon before I was approved. I had to complete six months of weigh ins one psych eval and one nutritionist appt before I was approved by insurance. Once I got approval my surgery was two weeks later :-)

I'm May 9th but I've been on this road since January. Now that its getting close I am getting a little freaked by it but no turning back

After my ins approval, they scheduled me with pre-op apt w/ surgeon and the date was set at that appt.
