    Consult Tomorrow...

    Hello All, I have my consult with Dr. Johnell tomorrow morning. What should I expect? How long is the usually meeting? Will I do any lab test or does this come later? I am a wreck. Just seems that it has arrived very quickly. Also, I have all my required paperwork and tests that my insurance has deemed neccesary. 6-month diet, Psych eval, ect.. Angela is already planning a surgery date sometime next month. (Yes, I got ahead of myself in planning so fast). I am extremely excited and scared about this meeting. Please advise on what I should expect tomorrow. Especially lab. Is this testing done in office or hospital? Is it done when I go for the all-day nutrient class?:nervous :nervous :nervous :nervous Thank you, Kelli_jo

    Hello All..

    I have my first meeting with Dr. Johnell on May 19th. I had planned to have it in Cheyenne and was working with a dietician. I was in such great spirits but, after three weeks, I was informed that since they where not a Center Of Excellances that I could either wait 12-14 more months or talk with Dr. Johnell. Needless to say, I felt so aweful. I had thought I was finally on the road to having the Lap Band process done. I have been on Dr. Johnells website and I have to admit that I was very impressed. Especially with this forum. I have read so many sucess stories from alot of you and it made me realize that I need never give up. I actually live on the Wyo/Colo boarder. I have 3 kids, 18, 15 and my 12 year old daughter. I also have a step son and step daughter that live in Lakewood CO. I have a very supportive mate that loves me no matter what. He just wants me to be happy. Again, I appreciate everyone that has welcomed me. I feel that I can ask just about anything about before, during and after this surgery and that I'll be able to gain alot of advice. If anyone wants to ask me anything, feel free. I am always up to making and chatting with new friends. Sincerely, Kellijo

    Hello All..

    Hello Everyone, I just found this site a few days ago. I have read so much great information. I am just now getting paperwork done to get the Lap Band surgery.I have been disabled for seven years and I feel as if I am finally going to be free of meds and the need of oxygen. I am in Colorado and Dr. Johnell will be doing my surgery. If anyone is familiar with him, please give me some insights. Also, anyone willing to assist me these next six months will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for allowing me to be apart of your forum. I have learn so much already! Sincerely, Kellijo
