...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 :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
