  1. I am scheduled for Feb.19th and will be starting my testing / bloodwork/ physical appointments this week.. Can anyone tell me what is all involved in that? particularly the physical ? I just want to know what to expect. Thank you in advance for any advice / info you can give me :w00t:

    Yep. There were more bypass people at that meeting in LA.. know why?? cuz Dr. Quilici favors bypass. even Rosalie kept pushing the bypass as well. I think its humorous how they say its " up to you . its your decision" , yet they obviously are pushing one over the other. lol I live further away than you do. I live in Claremont / Upland . They have a really good lap-band meeting out here where theres about 25 ppl or so and theyre ALL lap banders.

    no . i dont mind the questions. keep em comin. =] I have Aetna Global PPO . and NO, they surprisingly didnt make me do the 6 month diet, which I was happy about. Made for a nice surprise approval =] Yes. I have gone to a couple support group meetings. I didnt really want to and thought it would be " lame", but I actually like it. Its really insprirational. You should go! Maybe if you would like to go sometime, I could meet you there and we can go together. I never have anyone to go with =/ Anyways. Let me know if you have any other questions or whatever. I'll be here.

    I am a patient of Dr. Quilici's. I am having my surgery in a few weeks on Feb.19. you might find that you have to keep on top of his office staff to keep things moving. Would you believe they never even told me i was approved? I found out when i received a letter in the mail from Aetna saying my surgery was approved. lol. It was a huge shock, because according to Dr.Quilici's office, they hadnt even submitted my information to the insurance yet. sigh.. lol.. You kinda need to keep close tabs on them =/ but other than that, Ive found the Dr. himself to be very nice. He did try to push me toward the gastric, but I am still going with the Lap Band.
