I am expecting to have my surgery in January - I just received my insurance approval. It's funny - I was confident and relaxed until I got the letter. Now I'm feeling nervous. I'm still looking forward to it, though.

Hello to all,

I don't have a date yet. I did my pych eval on last Monday and this Monday I met with the nutritionist and get my gallbladder ultrasound. The coordinator says after Monday she will submit it all to insurance, once approved I can make a apt to come see the Surgeon and set a date. She said surgery should be in Jan as long as insurance approves. I started this journey 04/18/2013. I am excited to join this online support group and look forward to reading about all your journeys

I don't have a set date as of yet but my final appt with my nutritionist is Dec 23rd, then everything gets submitted to the insurance company for approval...hopefully Cigna cooperates and my surgery gets scheduled by the end of January!! Keeping my fingers crossed!! :)

Hi All! I just signed up for bariatric pal, but have been lurking for a while. I am scheduled to be sleeved by Dr. A Lopez on January 8 at Mi Doctor Hospital in TJ, Mexico! I hope to find a sleeve buddy that will be there around that time, as I will be traveling alone.

Just a couple days over a month to go, and I can hardly wait! I am so ready for this!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
