Seriously thinking of canceling rny . My surgeons office said that I could get complication insurance when I first was quoted fees. I got a call friday saying that they made a mistake and said revisions were not eligible. If any major complications that occur will be out of my pocket. This could ruin me financially.

They might still. cover it if your surgeon states you have a health condition or health decline that mandates it. Like if your GERD has given you Barretts Esophagitis, an Esophageal cancer precursor. Don't wish THAT on you, my Cousin June-Ellen died of that on the table at Cleveland Clinic, 2 years ago and I still miss her like it was, Yesterday😪💦😪

Can you postpone to think about it more instead of canceling ? To talk it over with the surgeon, your family and then decide?

Chances are if you cancel now because of this without really thinking it through, you'll be at this same point 2 years later wishing you did it, especially if you need it being a revision.

Don't live in the land of Woulda-Coulda-Shoulda too long. I hem-hawed for years, listened to everybody tell me for a multitude of reasons why I wouldn't be a success. Almost left it TOO LONG, now atv72 I am facing my own surgery. Oh yes. I will heal, but for me it will be a long drawn- out affair. I wish I had the sense to do it at your age, when I was YOUNG.😪💦😪

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
