I called my insurance yesterday (6/10) and got the run around. They told me that they are still showing nor authorization and that my surgeon's office has to call the insurance medical management team. My surgeon's office mailed the request for predetermination letter to ins. on 6/2 so I will wait until Monday, call again and then go from there. I am so anxious though. I just want to know NOW so I can get my surgery scheduled.

i completely understand the anxiety you are having just waiting to hear the great news. I'm so thankful we go on vacation tomorrow or else i think i would literally make myself sick with worry about "if I don't get approved." I already talked to my husband and told him i think it will crush me if i don't get approved, he simply said you cant let it crush you we will get this done one way or another. It rocks having your best friend stand beside you through all the trails of life:) I know that Monday seems eons away but I will keep you in my prayers. all the best to you

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
