Greetings,

I attended the seminar with Dr. Woodman on 3/4/2008:

I completed my consultation with the Nutritionist, had the Psych evaluation, copies of my past 5 year medical history, and a support letter from my primary care physician completed prior to my 1st visit in Dr. Woodman's office on 3/25/2008.

The nurse told me that they would schedule my 2nd visit once they received a letter from my insurance approving the surgery.

I received a letter from my insurance company last week advising that they have approved the surgery with a cc to Dr. Woodman. I assume that Dr. Woodman's office received the letter about the same time I received mine, and was wondering approximately how long I should wait before I call their office to see if they received the letter?

Thanks,

Terry

First off, welcome to LBT. As for your question, I probably would have called them that day!

LOL - me too! Or maybe I'd wait a whole day just to give them time to process it.

      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.

        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!
