HINT!!!

Start to taper your caffine NOW... I was able to get through the process with NO caffine withdrawal side effects, and they CAN be nasty!!!.

Hello everyone I'm new here, today is my sleep study I have finished all the requirements for surgery, the last thing is to submit my papers to the insurance company, my very first weigh in my BMI was 39.98 but a week later and every appointment after I have been at 40 so I'm really nervous in getting approved, but would the doctors have me go through the whole process if they thought I would be denied

Hi Vonvon. Personally, I don't know much about the BMI qualifications but I'm sure there are plenty of people on this site that do! I hope you find more on this topic.

Cupofjojo- such a good idea of creating a separate Instagram account! I have kinda looked around with different hashtags relating to the surgery to kind of see different things! I will create one today and add you :)

Arts- I definitely need to start winging my self off of the caffeine like yesterday!!! Lol that is def my goal for this week... As I am drinking my coffee!!! Lol gosh it's gonna be tough but sooo worth it :)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
