Dede that's exactly why I chose not to go through my insurance because I felt like that would/could possibly happen and I figured by the time I jumped through all the hoops they wanted me to with all of the testing they wanted Preop all of the copays would add up to just a bit less than I would be spending going out of the country. And I would be well into the weight loss process too when I would have still been waiting. It just didn't make any sense to me. I'm happy I chose my choice. It worked for me.

Hi Julie - yes, I will see you there! You'll be one day ahead of me. My husband and I are coming from Idaho. Would be great to keep in touch.

I have been trying to discourage my husband from coming, We live in Arizona so I think I will just drive down. I think Larry will not have enough to do to keep him out of my hair!

@@Gaelsmom This whole 200+ page thread is full of everyone's personal experiences from having surgery at OCC. I highly recommend you go through and try to read the whole thread. I know there is a LOT to get through, but I definitely found reading the full thread to be very helpful in my decision making process.

      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! 😞
