I had my endoscopy yesterday. I am waiting for test results to come back. My regular dr is writing up my letter I did everything else I was suppose to do. I m scared I ll get run around with my insurance. I don't know why just am. I hear so many horror stories dealing with insurance companies. I am having the bypass down due to my GERD and type 2 diabetes

Also having hard time losing weight. My family doesn't understand. Ugh. Anyone else felt this way before finding out ??

I’m scheduled to have the endoscopy procedure done next Friday [emoji51]. I’m very nervous about getting insurance approval as well, but from what my patient coordinator has told me there shouldn’t be any problems as long as I complete all of my requirements and don’t gain weight. Who is your insurance provider?

I am also getting my appointments together for an approval. I am also nervous due to it being close to the holidays. I don't need a endoscopy due to having a colonoscopy done early this year . Just need to attend nutrition class. And get some lab work done . Really pushing to finish everything this week or before the end of the month. Really want my surgery this year due to my job switching insurance next year. Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞🏾

Fidelis . I did call up the insurance and asked some questions. They said they go by whatever Dr says. I hope you don't run into any problems. I guess we just have to stay positive.

Good for you! I pray and hope you get your surgery this year. Stay positive. It's so tough.

      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! 😞
