When i called them i was told that everything would be covered 100% but that i do have a copay of $1000 now i am unsure of how true or not that may be because my mother in law is also having the surgery done the week after me and she was told no copay but we both have the same exact insurance so honestly i am unsure about the copay but if it was to be true my insurance coordinator told me they would mail me the bill for it after surgery and i can choose a payment plan that best, i also no of a lady that had it done and she never got a bill for the $1000 but so far we've only had $25 copays for the surgeon's appointments and the psych other than that the $550 for the Nutrition Program Fee everyone having surgery through Brigham and Womens must pay that fee no insurance covers it so its out-of-pocket.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
