My surgery is set for August 8th DSLdiversity

Congratulations!!! My Surgery date is August 8th. I also have a band, but my surgeon is doing an all in one band out sleeve in! DSLdiversity

That is so awesome. I didn't get my surgery date until getting insurance approval. I was "tempted" today to call my surgeons office and ask to be considered to move my date up for surgery if anyone cancels or doesn't want the surgery... DSLdiversity

Great to hear, my procedure will be Aug 8th and i still have to get a gallbladder ultrasound & endoscopy DSLdiversity

Yes I'm in H-town. Dr Dexter Turnquest DSLdiversity Sorry I'm not Dr Turnquest, he's my surgeon. Lol DSLdiversity

I'm praying for you and your future success. Rest well and wake up ready for the new you! DSLdiversity

I will be praying for you. Congratulations DSLdiversity

August 8th is my date for surgery! Excited and ready to go! WooHoo DSLdiversity

cjacks I'm also having my VGS surgery on August 8th. Let's keep each other encouraged! DSLdiversity

Yvonne I will pray for you. I'm grateful that my surgeon offered to do my procedure as an all in one. But with this being the case I have to wait a bit longer because the procedure will take longer. God willing I will get done in early August before the regular semester starts. I'm also an educator. It's a bit easier for me since I teach in higher Ed. A lil flexibility. Side note the first surgeon I went to did not want to da a one step procedure. I didn't choose him because he was "rude" to my wife and I. He is a very skilled surgeon... DSLdiversity

dvons, I feel you, my band is unfilled as well and I am COUNTING the days until my surgery! I wish I could go to sleep and awake from anesthesia... lol

Good luck Nina1562

will do!

Hello all, I have been approved and received all of my next dates for Gallbladder test, Endo, Pre-op, surgery date, and 1st Post-op. I started this process in February 4th (2016) and my surgery is August 8th (2016). Thats still right at 2-months away, but I'm praying the time goes fast! I am not nervous, I am not doubting, I am ready for my life to change for the BEST!

After my 4 required appointments with the NUT, my paperwork was submitted on May 25th. Today I got a letter from BCBS stating I will hear something within the next 15 days. :-(. I've been with BCBS since 1993... Same Federal plan DSLdiversity
