I feel so selfish...



Recommended Posts

My info should be to sent to insurance sometime this week. It would of been last week but insurance coordinator was not in the office. Now she is playing catch up. I feel so bad because I am fussing to everyone about having to wait an extra few days to be submitted and many you guys and gals have to wait 3 months, 6 months, or even longer to complete your journeys and I just started mine on March 3rd of this year. I am very anxious about this whole ordeal. I want to get excited but I am afraid I am going to be denied. I meet all the qualifications and I have a whole laundry list of comorbidities. Is it normal to be anxious, nervous, and excited all at the same time? I wish everyone well.

I don't think your being selfish.

I think that you just want to get on with your surgery so you can begin a new stage in your life.

Being all those emotions that you are experiencing is normal.

Good luck to you.

It sounds like you're feeling exactly how I felt. When I actually schedule my surgery I thought "I'm not going to sleep for the next month" My neves calmed down as it go closer. I don't blame you for being a bit annoyed at the delay. My final appointment with my surgeon was on the 8th and the office didn't send my paper work until the 22nd. I was more than a little annoyed.

I think what you are feeling is normal. Take a deep breath and try to relax. You will do just fine.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
