Approved united health care choice plus



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I called my insurance today and found out I was approved. I have United Healthcare, I did not have to do the 6 month supervised diet. I was so worried about that. They approved within 48 hours. The surgery is scheduled for Oct 7. I'm scared, nervous, worried and excited.

Wow I have United health Care too , and I had to meet with the dietitian and diet for a year, they told me that is part of their requirements, I live in Michigan, but since I've started I now have Medicare as well it is my Primary Insurance now, and United Health Care is my Secondary insurance. I wonder why I had to do that for a full year and you didn't. anyway I finished with that in October, now they are doing a referral to my insurance company so I can go to the psych eval, then hopefully meet with a surgeon upon being given the OK from the psych Dr. then get a date set, I will be one happy camper when I get a date and I hope very very very soon !!! :D

      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! 😞
