OMG, I was finally approved!!!



Recommended Posts

After being denied twrice, and the second letter making no sense at all, my mother talked to the people at the bariactric office. After reading through my letter of denial they called Tricare and found out my case was sent to an outside doctor who obviously had no clue what Tricare's requirements were. My surgeon actually talked to the head administrator of Tricare and finanlly got it approved. So now, seven months after it started, this is finally going to happen for me. I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. I will soon be recieving my surgery date, and can not wait. :thumbdown:

I will be banded by Dr. Robert Cywes in Jacksonville, Florida.

      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!
