Approved Today



Recommended Posts

After bugging BCBS of IL and TeamCare, I was approved. My dr's office submitted everything last week on 4/3/18 and I was approved today! I am so overjoyed. Cannot wait to talk to my Dr's office and get this surgery scheduled. My son graduates from college on 5/12 so I'm going to wait until after his graduation to have it done. I cannot wait. I'm so thrilled!

Literally feels like there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Graduating from University of South Carolina. Broadcast Journalism Major. That's him in the center of the picture on my profile. He plays football for the Gamecocks. I can't stop grinning. LOL... I cannot wait to not have to be on insulin and hbp meds and these swollen legs.

Know the Gamecocks well, I was an only child. In addition to being Mama's Little Princess I had to be Daddy's little bud. Therefore i,know more than the average bear to quote Yogi. Somebody said to late hubby It must be nice to a wife who's so into,sports. He said not really, she times everything for half time, throws it on TV trays and says Eat quick,I don't want to miss the game either. MACPOWER--who's having sleeve surgery today played for Nebraska back in the early 2000s. NOT sure what position. You will feel so much better after surgery and I will too![emoji13][emoji351][emoji13]

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
