...Elizabeth, you're approved!!!

Oh em gee! I couldn't believe it! When I saw the surgeon's # on my phone I was SO scared to answer! LOL The coordinator told me the Peer to Peer lasted 5 minutes and then Cigna approved it!!!

I'm going to leave out the roller coaster ride of the last 48 hrs, but let's just say I *almost* gave up! I was so disheartened when I learned last Friday that I did not have an approval when I thought I did. Then on Monday to hear that I was denied for missing info, then .... blah blah blah.

Please just don't give up. Don't lose hope...I almost did and now I'm very happy I didn't.

So still on for November 5th. Granted, that all pre-op tests come back OK :)

      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!
