Hi all, I am set for the 28th as well! Super nervous as I have never had any kind of surgery before, but even more excited and just cant wait to get it done!!! Best of luck to you all!!!!!

Yay! Another member in Our group!! Welcome aboard! Looking at your signature you just had surgery!! Good for you! Hope everything is going well for you! So I see you got the sleeve, I'm going for the full bypass,i was leaning towards sleeve but found out my malabsorption concern was moot, then found out about the gerd/reflux issues with the sleeve. And the thoughts of my already severe reflux getting worse really helped make the final decision.

Thanks for joining us here davop! I just had my last class at Kaiser east, had to get my a1c below 9 and get my weight down before I could schedule my surgical consult. Very happy to say I accomplished both and now have a consult on the 17th with Dr Husain! Very excited!

Hello arch! Happy to see another south sider on here! Hopefully things will pick up and we can get enough people to start getting together. I am still in the pre-op process. Just had my last psych evaluation, now waiting to make an appointment to see the surgeon and get things really rolling!

I'm in week four of my six weeks of classes with Kaiser Permanente. Looking at a probable surgery date in July, anyone else out there in the area?
