I'm three days away from per op diet. I just had all my approvals from insurance thur financing. Everything is ago. One more thing 10 day blood work. Still haven't talk to NUT yet or Surgeon. However, I'll be going under the HH plan.

Did anyone go thur True Results with the HH program? Did you speak with a (NUT) before surgery?

I have been working with True Results in Houston. I am getting surgery under the HH plan they offer. I got my blood work and EGD done. I have a small hiatal hernia. I was cleared for surgery and then I got a call today that True Results now has a new requirement for the surgery under the HH plan. They require that patients be on prescription heartburn medication prior to surgery. So I have to go on heartburn meds and have a follow up with the surgeon before they will clear me for surgery. Apparently insurance companies have been denying claims because patients were not on prescription heartburn meds prior to surgery. I am so frustrated! I have taken OTC Prilosec and other OTC acid reflux meds and my heartburn and acid reflux never goes away. Ugh!

This is my first time posting to this forum. I am looking at getting gastric sleeve done the end of September. I have about 120 lbs to lose. I have type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and severe sleep apnea. I need this surgery! So frustrated!

The meds should only be 8 days its 3 perceptions. Did they say you had acid in your intestine I forget the name. I had to go thur the same thing if that's the case.

Prescription

When I had the EGD done The photos showed I had redness and irritation. They removed a polyp from my stomach. I am just scared my surgery won't get approved.

Also, I don't think I have h pylori. At least they did not say I tested positive for it.

How did it go?

I am going through True Results in Houston.

I finally got scheduled for surgery for Sept 30th. I have been taking the acid medicine they gave me but its not really helping the acid reflux. Anyways, I am excited and scared about the surgery.
