  4. Hey,

     

    I'm glad to hear you are home and recovering.

     

    That's good news about the hospital staff...Hopefully they will be as good on my day.

     

    Take care and get lots of rest.

     

    Talk to you soon!

  5. Hey Kathy,

     

    Hope you are getting lots of rest and having a good recovery.

     

    From what I've read on these boards, the next two weeks will be tough (they call it "bandster hell").

     

    Be good to yourself, get lots of rest, and be strong. :)

     

    Look forward to hearing from you when you are feeling well enough to sit in front of the computer!

  10. I would go to the seminar (since that is the first step in the process anyway) and ask about payment plans. I know that they offer Capitol One financing with a fixed rate...but I'm not sure if they have other alternatives.

  12. Hello. I started the process with the Oregon Bariatric Center in late December of last year. It has taken a bit longer than I would have liked to get the surgery date, but otherwise I am happy with their services. They make you jump through a few hoops like a pre op weight loss (mine was 10 lbs) and nutrition classes and psych evaluations. The steps outlined on their website will tell you what you need to do to get the final approval for surgery. The staff are friendly and Dr. Yarbrough seems very approachable and down to earth (which is unusual for a surgeon). Dr. Umbach (who I have never met) will be leaving the center in a few months and they are in the process of getting another bariatric surgeon. They are also planning a move to a different location. They are going to leave Eugene for a fancier center in Springfield near the mall. Hopefully this answers some of your questions. Feel free to message me if you need any more info or support.

  13. Hey Chica,

     

    How's it going?

  14. Hey Kathy, I will be one week behind you. My pre op appt is the day after you have your surgery! You must be so excited!

     

    How was your pre-op appt? I'm not sure what to expect (other than meeting the doctors and anesthesiologist).

    You are welcome Turler Thanks for the info about the Calendar...I didnt know about that feature.

    Calling all April Bandsters!!!!

    Hey D- Congrats to you too! No overnight stay is required for me, unless there are complications. I've had laproscopic surgery for gall bladder removal, so I sort of know what to expect. Basically you wake up a few hours after surgery feeling very groggy...and before you know it, you are in the car on your way home to recover in your own bed. The hardest part about the whole process is not being able to sleep on your side or stomach. I've got lots of pillows ready because I hate sleeping flat on my back.

    Calling all April Bandsters!!!!

    I just got the lapband approved by insurance. :thumbup: Wednesday, April 9th will be the big day. It's such a relief to finally be approved! I am so ready to do this!
  25. I think all you need is a letter from her saying that you have been treated by her and that she believes you would be a good candidate for surgery. I'm not sure though....seems like evey insurance requires something different and I'm not familiar with HealthNet.
