Lost all hope!



Recommended Posts

Well, basically my new PCM called me a liar. She said there is NOTHING in my medical records to indicate I've ever had Hypertension or high cholesterol or that I've ever been treated!! WTF?! She wouldn't put me on meds and referred me to the HAWC even though I've already seen a nutritionist. There is no record of my weight loss attempts according to her. I was arguing and bawling my eyes out! I'm going to the medical records dept. today to request a copy! How can that possibly be?!

So I'm a fat and lazy liar according to my PCM. I've been crying since I left the clinic! I don't think I'm able to stop. I called my surgeon's nurse who is GREAT and told her to go ahead and submit the paperwork. I should know by Friday or Monday she said and would call to let me know.

I'm just devastated and pissed and depressed and upset and lost and crushed and confused, etc. Why when I finally decide to make a permanent change in my life for the better people have to get in the way?:crying::confused2::drum::sleep2::moon::Banane37::angry:

I am sorry you are having to go through this . You said NEW doctor.

What about your OLD doc ? where are those records ? I would get those asap !!

It sounds like that is what your doing now. If you KNOW you have been seen for those things in the past then i would not worry too much about it. She probably does not have those records yet ?

But i would make damn sure they are in there. Have you ever had an RX's for those conditions ? call teh Pharmacies you got them filled at get copies of the meds ?

Good luck you will be ok !!

What a cow (your PCM). You definitely need to change PCMs- I just did and I am MUCH happier. My new PCM has been a tremendous help in all this. get your records. Something has to be wrong.

Keep the faith..I feel your pain as I too have bawled for weeks regarding lack of info, denials and now a big private pay loan. I even bawled sooooooo much that a insurance rep asked if I saw a therapist... Thanks....All I know is ..This will work out somehow..keep moving toward your goal :}

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
