100 calls later and I'm still optimistic for my July 15th surgery date. I was down 10lbs but now I'm only down 5. :( I will hear from the insurance coordinator tomorrow afternoon whether or not my surgery is still a go!! Putting myself on a full liquid diet starting in the a.m. And praying for a positive out come!!

I still can't believe one coordinator told me I was 100% covered with no out of pocket expenses and another calls a week and a half before surgery to tell me I have to pay 2,700 dollars up front!!!!!

That is a lack of communication if ever I heard one! That is awful and downright sad. I hope all is a go here for you real soon.

Major lack of communication!! I was crushed. My whole family was crushed. But the coordinator I'm speaking to now is pretty sure she can find me some wiggle room with 1,000 dollars up front and payment plan the rest.

I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high... But, a person can't possibly have this much bad luck can they? Lol

*fingers crossed*

Wow!! Talk about bashing the family budget!! I am a firm believer that if you want something done right you need to do it yourself. (Yes, I seem to want to control everything, but can't control my weight without surgical intervention.) It never fails that I need to re-do most of what someone else is getting paid to do. I'll keep my fingers crossed that everything works out for you!!

      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!
