Except you cannot anticipate complications in the middle of a semester... Money time and effort could be lost

But as always the choice is yours

Thank you! For most people that is totally true. I really did think about all the complications that might happen! I have worked hard to get to this place in my life. I even lost twins will in grad school and still finished. I am a extremely strong woman. I always push forward.

I am approved? If I agree to start over. no previous testing, surgeries and wait for an undetermined time.

@SeattleLady

I agree that health insurance is terrible - we pay a lot of money for what?

"kind of" like car insurance?? - pay a lot, one accident you are cancelled!!

i've enjoyed reading your "tale of 2 cities" / tummies😂

your determination - getting approved - woo hoo

excitement is a great emotion felt by most OP - i can only your imagine

not knowing what and when things are happening - makes you

upset/mad and a little crazy all at the same time - frustration about the

"whats and when" of your revision.

hopefully you will find out the "plan" soon, and things will go forward

good luck

God Grant Me Patience, Just Hurry Up About It!!

The latest, my GERD is getting better by my change in eating habits. Most days, I feel like a perpetual science experiment!

I am afraid to eat. I don't want to have acid. My first visit to the nutritionalist is this week. I will have a clear plan at that point. If I am revised? It will occur in late March. Time will surely tell!

How did you win the denial? I was just denied today and I'm super mad about it.

        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!!
