Hiya. Glad to see an active bariatric group here on MFP! My name's Elley. I'm pre-op and am still in in early stages of the process, I guess, since my insurance requires 6 months of medically supervised weight loss before they'll cover bariatric surgery. I had my endoscopy and because of damage to my esophagus from acid reflux and a hiatal hernia, I'll be going the RNY route. I... hope it's still cool that I'm here? Since the group name specifically says sleeve. X.x I figured I'd shoot my shot, haha. :)

Started the process end of March, looking at submitting to insurance end of Sept and hoping for a surgery date in late Oct/early November. :)

    Welcome @elleykat! All are welcome to join! Come back often and join in a chat.
    Many suffer from reflux after gastric sleeve, so you're probably wise to go the RNY route. Keep us up to date.
