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.😪💦😪

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
