Hi I've never posted but follow along with the post. I've been at this process for 7 months now. Today all my paperwork was submitted to insurance and I was told by my insurance company that it is already under nurse review and the last seemed surprised. She said I would hear back in 2 days. Im just wondering if this is good or bad. Im so scared I will be denied.

Feel like you're perched on the edge of a razor blade, don't you? Your chances are good that it will be fine, this must be National Irritate the Client Day, AshMarie's Blue Care is doing equal things to her, her surgery is already scheduled for Wednesday and now they are pulling a balk on her. Seems it's between her PCP, surgeon and the insurance company and each blames the other. [emoji404]And AshMarie is caught in the middle. Gosh I hope it gets resolves, she is too nice for this to happen to.[emoji14][emoji415]

Are you using your insurance? The reason I am asking is it could be that you Surgical team is putting together the forms and data that your insurance will want and usually the insurance company drags their feet a little. I would suggest contacting your insurance company and seeing if the paperwork was submitted and approved. They actually can tell you.

Also if you are paying out of pocket, then most likely, they are trying to schedule everything you would need. Usually, they will provide you with a packet containing your last bit of information. That includes time and date of surgery and all the information you will for before and after surgery.

      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.

        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.

      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!
