Final sign off from the sleep study. Now just waiting for that call! !

Nutritionist signed off today! Now just to meet with the doc about my new CPAP. Beginning of the year?

At my appointment with the psychologist. So nervous. Funny thing is I am a Psych nurse. Oh help me.

No surgery yet. Have sleep study this week. Nutritionist will clear me on Dec 4. So hopefully beginning of year

My mammogram the doctor said to get done since it was annual. The Pap because i had an abnormal result in the past. All of that is done. Just have to fu with nutritionist next week. Then fitted for CPAP week after. Surgery should be first of the year

All done! Green light for surgery. 1 step closer.

I went for a sleep study last month. The nurse called and said I need to redo the test to be fitted. Since the first study suggested it. She said insurance won't approve surgery since it's documented I have some apnea. She said I would have to be on it compliant at least 2 weeks or insurance won't apptove. She knows by previous patients. Just another delay! I was hoping to have surgery before the end of the year

I am in Chicago as well! Well North Riverside. Surgery at Loyola. Hopefully in 2 months

Saludos desde Chicago no tengo fecha para el operacion

Tomorrow is my EGD. So nervous. I know it is all worth it in the end!

EGD went pretty smoothly. Now just getting drained after. Waiting for results

Anyone else from Chicago area?

Had my first appointment yesterday. So much to do. Hopefully surgery by the end of the year. Surgeon said bypass is best for me. Need an EGD, EKG, mammogram, pap, sleep study, blood work and then wait for insurance

Congrats. So nervous about the whole process.

Not sure if they are. I will research that. Thanks. My insurance finally approved and I want to get it done asap

Or getting on the bus and having to walk side ways and still say excuse me when you rub or knock something out of someone hands

Mizzpuddinpie. Were are you having your surgery?

Can't wait to say good bye to seat sweat. Always scared to sit in a plastic seat and be the first to get up and know it looks like you peed. Will hopefully miss putting tissue between the girls because they were smooshed. Looking for the seat that does not have arms that will rub my thighs. Wearing short sleeves and having to push the side boobs back in. The push up bra that cuts into your skin. Someone said this. Not having to wear a splash guard every day even when is not that time of the month. Not having to worry about going shopping with friends and nothing in their store doesn't fit.

Great news! Congrats

Going to meet the surgeon July 21. No dates set yet. My first appointment. See the psychologist in October. Hopefully right after. Before end of year i hope
