Hello...I am stressing a bit I have UHC and my policy required me to have 5 years of history of BMI,etc. I have all years except 2005! I even called my insurance company to ask them for all insurance claims from 2003-2007 and it is not here yet! I sent everything in today and am wondering if I am going to be okay since I found out my UHC plan will change in 2008 and will not cover any bariatric surgery. I am trying to stay focused, and I have put in a call to my coordinator with the surgeon to see if she has ever prepared a letter when one year was missing. Getting nervous, but hanging in there. Has anyone had this issue?

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
