The Freeman Experience

Here's another update on my progress and process. I had a couple appointments at my surgeon's office yesterday. I completed nutrition class 5 out of 6. So one more to go. I gained a little weight since last month's visit though. It's okay though. I also had a followup with my surgeon regarding the results of my EGD that was completed last month. I found out that I have a hernia that will have to also be repaired during my gastric bypass surgery. Glad it's going to be taken care of at the same time instead of having to do a separate surgery. My surgeon also ordered a butt load of labs for me to do. I'm anemic so he wants to make sure that I don't need an iron transfusion prior to surgery. I am down to this one last nutrition appointment then my paperwork goes to the insurance company for approval. I could be having surgery for my birthday this year. It is so close and I'm still excited about it. I now need to start stocking up on my vitamins, protein shak...

Hi guys, I just wanted to give you an update on my bariatric surgery process. I am down to the final months of my 6 month supervised program. I have completed all of my required appointments. I have 2 nutrition appointments left - Aug. 8th and Sept. 12th. After that my paperwork will be submitted to my insurance company for approval. They have up to 15 days to respond. Hopefully it won't take that long. It seems that I just might be having surgery around my birthday in October. I'm glad this part of the process is almost over. I'll be back as soon as I have more information to share with you. Love, Keke_dalrny
