Guest guest Posted November 9, 2001 Report Share Posted November 9, 2001 Today I saw my PCP. It went very well and more progress was made than last time. This is partially due to my depression being more stable. Anyway, I got to give him a disk and a printout from 2 docs on the DS. He has also requested that I see a surgeon here in the Colorado area so they will give him their take on why or why not DS. There are no DS surgeons in Colorado at this time. My insurance situation decision is based on what the PCP requests for me. So his learning curve and convincing is my first critical step. I have approval to see a surgeon and will call and schedule on Monday. My PCP has agreed to read the data I gave him and talk personally with Dr. Welker. He wants to request the surgery with the correct dialogue to help me get approved. He believes it is a good option for me to have wls. He understands that I like and want the DS and so he is open to checking it out and so on. I feel this is good news. So, I think a good day at the zoo. Now, to live through the RNY surgeon visit. My PCP asked me to take all my info in and be prepared with questions and so on. So I am already beginning the prep work. I guess I am actually kind of scared that this might really happen. Isn't that a strange feeling. I have a lot to figure out like how to handle my bills during recovery etc. Hope you all are having a good day. i Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
