Got my approval today!

Nov 05, 2012

I'm so excited.  They actually approved me for the RnY-DS (I wanted the VSG-DS), but since the Dr. said my insurance wouldn't approve the DS because my BMI wasn't high enough he suggested having the VSG, as that was the only procedure that kept the pyloric valve intact, which is what I wanted.  So I began researching the VSG, and know feel that it would probably be a better choice for me and it doesn't involve such a risky surgery due to no rearranging of the intestines.  So they are having the approval "updated" for the VSG, which won't be a problem since it's less risky and therefore cheaper.  I hope the next 6 weeks fly by quickly.....I can't wait to shed this body and get healthy.
