Hiii! ☺ I have my consultation January 11, 2017. Unfortunately my insurance doesn't cover WLS so I have to self pay. I'm still super excited and ready for this!

That means you'll get a quick surgery date after completing your surgeons requirements instead of waiting a week to a month for approval from your insurance

With my situations im going through insurance...I had my first initial appointment Nov 17th...then it took them a week to get back with me...my patient advocate emailed me my surgeons requirements which I started getting done right away. After that it took them another 2 weeks to submit my request for approval to my insurance and that rook another week...and then another week to get scheduled...but remember I did mine around the holidays so it took a little longer with the holiday delays...also my insurance requirements weren't much...I had to have been 18 years or older, a Dr. Recommendation (my surgeon), to be either 35 plus bmi with morbities or 40 plus BMI without morbities...then I need to a psych evaluations and dietician evaluation staring I understood my post diet requirements. So Im 46.2 BMI with sleep apnea (a morbity requires for approval if under 40 bmi) so about a month and a half... hope that helps

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
