  1. OK I am the one that she was talking OUT of the surgery.. Her point is RESEARCH your doctor, doesn't matter if in the united states or egypt.. ALSO this is a forum to share experiences to help other make an informed decision. It doesn't matter this is our experience it was good and for that i am blessed. WE did see people that didnt have a good experience but not sure they would have if were surgery anywhere. SO people stop playing Natzi wls police.. It just shows.. opinions are like buttholes we have have them and some stink.. and i am down 32 poundsssssssssssssss whooot whoot

    ohh and i have read tons of horror stories about Dr A and he is an excellent surgeon and stays booked. PLUS what do u care.. u you dont want to read the stuff.. dont read it. and yes we are on 2-3 forums and facebook.. keep up the good work Tulip. and honey if they do pay you u need to share.. i was in that hospital room and hotel with u the whole time..LOL


  2. You know how things go with families. This is low on the totem pole. I had to get my son deployed in feb, foster child needs special needs met aka testing for march, Husband is deploying in April and leaves country in May,, so I am looking to save up and have it done in july or early aug. That way my husband will come home to a thinner wife..LOL hmm hope he doesnt recognize me .. wouldnt that be cool??

    Good luck on the private route. I have jumped thru insurance hoops 2 times before and this time i had 2 insurances both private thru husbands jobs and they both denied after spending a yr making me do diets and tests.. grrr. This time I will do it my way. I have had friends who did the band who had issues Makes me glad i didnt get it done i guess. You will have better luck with the sleeve I am sure. less care and more of a tool you can work with. Keep in touch let me know when u get yours done.

    :D Karen


  3. Hey there.. I am not in Raleigh but I am in south hill, va. I have decided to do the sleeve but both of my insurances have denied me so I am going to have it done in mexico. I have been researching the sleeve and doctors for about a yr now. Its scarey yet when you read the post in some of the forums you get uplifted. I wish you best of luck with your decision..
