Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I am so sorry to hear this is happening to you MsVicky, my thoughts will be with you and I hope this is something that can be worked out. "Tribulation produces endurance; endurance, in turn and approved condition; the approved condition, in turn, hope, and the hope does not lead to disappointment; because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the holy spirit, which was given us." Romans 5:3-5. I have always found this scripture to be true when I have experienced hard times, yes, at the time it seems so hard, but when I find that I survived and have become stronger for it, then I feel really good.

Well yall.......... Im not doing really well. I struggle so bad at work. Just to get there is a problem. For the last week and a half I have hurled every Am and Pm. My food is just not going through. If its in liquid form it does better but I still hurl. I called the Surgeon Monday and reported this. That was his last day in the office for 3 weeks. Hes going out of the country during this time. He called me in Phenegran. Anti Nausea Suppositories. If yall have ever taken this you know they knock you out or make you so sleepy you cannot function.

I called the office back today and reported it still doing it and asked who was taking his call. They told me I need to go to the ER and tell them whos paitent i was because him and a hospitalist had talked about what to do with his bypass patients. I had a appoiment this afternoon with my PCP and run it by her. She stated i was getting dehydrated and wanted me to follow my surgeons orders about reporting to the ER.

She stated they would IV me with fluids then do a CT Scan to make sure I wasnt getting a stricture. She said they would be able to help me more right now than herself with getting test done and completed in a timely fashion while I was there instead of having to wait to get it done. The PTS part ....the beta blocker she put me on has seemed to help some. They bumped me up taking 3 a day versues the one.

So..........im living and still trying not to be so frigging nauseaed.

(((((((HUGS)))))))
Quite honestly, I think an endoscopy is in order, not a CT scan in diagnosing for strictures. I know you don't like the idea, and that you're having a bad time with PTSD, but the quicker you can get to the bottom of this, the better it is, and the faster you will be able to feel better.
Just keep up with the liquids for now, until your tests are done.
Hang in there, hope you feel better soon.
