I have an appointment now for an upper endoscopy and h-plyori biopsy on August 10th. Good news is they twilight you so I won't even feel it. -
Today I go for the consult for clearance from the gastro doc. This appointment makes me nervous. I don't want to have a scope done. Lol I'm a big baby...

I know this is old, but I'm seeing Dr Woodard now.
-
Ok those don't sound bad. Lol

I'm getting ready to make the psychological clearance appointment. What are they going to ask me?
-
I go for my first consult on July 7th. I am a bit nervous for all the requirements needed before surgery. I just filled out the psychological papers and I still have the large stack for medical questions. What types of things did others have to do and for how long before surgery? Anyone with Cigna insurance? Just curious of what steps you had to take.

No surgery date yet. That's awesome to hear isn't it? You're too small :-)
-
Mine was great too! We decided that the sleeve is probably a better option for me. Now all the waiting and hard work starts

Have you had any negative effects? I worry about the dumping. I had my gallbladder removed quite awhile back and had 2 years of gastro issues from it
