2nd visit to the surgeon

Oct 26, 2009

I saw the surgeon again on Friday.  He can do the exploratory lap, fix my pouch, close up any incisional hernias and we can schedule that in a week.  OR, if he also does a revision, I have to wait for insurance approval and join the year long program they have.  (Which, by the way, sound fabulous!  My original surgeon had nothing like this!)  They have a dietician, exercise physiologist, surgeon who monitors your vitiman levels, support groups and vitiman supplements.  Obviously, I've opted for the revision.  So, I should hear something regarding my insurance on Wednesday.  The insurance person said with complications, she was 99% sure it would be approved without problem.  Now, I just have to come up with $750 out of the $3000 fee.  But, that's do-able.  I'm excited.  I will post more after I hear on Wednesday.
