Finally got my date!

Good luck! I had a couple denials before the final approval. In the end it was worth the wait. I'm sure it will all work out!

How many denials did you get? I'm afraid of being denied. I have no clue what the process is after the first denial.

I had 2 denials. The first was a legitimate reason and the second was basically a communication problem between the office and the insurance company. Once that was sorted out I was approved. It took about 4 months from first submission to insurance until my surgery date. Hopefully yours is quicker!

I'm really hoping to get approved the first time around. I had to switch insurance so their requirements are alittle different. I'm at a 39 BMI and they want 40 and above. I go for my last weigh in one Thursday.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
