Ok went to see my surgeon today and caseworker wow he went over everything he is going to do asked if I had any questions for him. This is really going to happen! I will be the first one I have to be there at 5:30am surgery is at 7:30. My liquid diet starts on the 31st. My caseworker hooked me up my insurance will pay for my vitamins it will be shipped to my house every mouth my copayment is 25$ a mouth my b12 is a nasal spray once a week awesome! That is great for me one less thing I have to worry about! So surreal I am so happy!!!! I have to take a minute for this to really sink in. Also picked up my medication that they called in for me to have when I am discharged,so I don't have to worry about that! I love this team! They are dotting there i's Nd crossing there t's !

    I know I keep given bits and pieces I am so excited some things are coming back to me one of the prescriptions my Dr. gave me was for nausea,pain,and to treat reflux even thought I don't have reflux and never did he said he wanted me to take it everyday for a precaution. I also think you guys should talk to your caseworkers about having your insurance company to pay for your Vitamins too like mine does I have BC/BS and my caseworker hooked me up. Since we have to take them for the rest of our lives and I also will be using my flexable spending account to pay my 25$ copay.
