To be honest I'm not sure all of my paperwork has been submitted yet. Completed about 1/2 of my required apps. But the surgeon scheduled my surgery date already and I have all my doctor visits scheduled to be completed by March 7th.

When was all your paperwork submitted to the insurance company and how soon after did you get your surgery date



About 2 weeks after.

It took almost 3 weeks to submit between my doctor and surgeon. However it only took about 3 business days to get approved after that.

My Surgeon office won't give me a set until I get the approval. I didn't go through his office for any appointments. I did everything on my own and once I did everything that my insurance required to get the surgery, I looked on line for the surgeon I wanted set up an consultation had all the labs results , psyc eval, and 6 month visits faxed to him. They were impressed too. Called me on 2/8 and said they faxed everything to insurance on2/7. I went on line to see if they did I see they have everything. I called insurance today they said give them 10 days

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
