APPROVED by Kaiser Mid-Atlantic



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

I am nervous nelly right now but wanted to share my good news. I have completed my 6th months program. My papers were submitted on Jan 15th. Nut stated it would take two weeks to get a decision and sure enough I received the approval on Jan 29th. I am now scheduled for a consult with surgeon on Feb 13th with Dr. Liao at GBMC. This process just got real! Hoping all goes well.

Congratulations on getting approved!! I had my surgery at Kaiser (Southern California) too. What was your 6 month program like?

Thanks! The process was smooth until the 6th visit due to my nut going into labor & I had to drive an hour to another kaiser to see another nut for my last visit. It was a lot of confusion but it all worked out. Thank goodness.

Oh! I remember reading your post about that. I think another poster was also going through the program and they didn't have a NUT to cover while she was out on maternity leave. :blink:

      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.
