Anyone being sleeved in Texas in Dec?



Recommended Posts

I live in Alabama

I'm having DS surgery in Dallas sometime in December. I'm waiting for insurance approval still but the dr assures me it will be before the new year! Safe travels from Alabama.

@Dknal2..what do you think of Frenzel? I have my consultation with him this week. How quickly after consultation were you able to schedule surgery? Did you have a lot of visits to Plano for pre-op requirements?

I'm not getting sleeved until 1/11/17, but I live in Boerne, TX which is 30 miles west of San Antonio. Where on Tx do you live?

No , since I live in Alabama everything has been telephonically. But it has been a great experience. I find him to be very informative and staff super helpful. I'm excited .

It took one week to get approved and then another 4 days for my date.

How long has this process taken for you to get scheduled?

      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!
