Hey everyone!
My referral was sent today but get this...TO FREMONT KAISER!! I called and told Fremont that I almost 50 mins away from there, and working in Richmond, living in Martinez that wont work for me! I have no idea why my dr would send it there unless they were less busy??? Weird!!! so Fremont is FWDing it to Richmond now for me, and told me in about a week to check the status....*sighs*
My boyfriend was denied care credit. anyone have any other resources, or information? He does not have insurance at this time due to being laid off.
He needs help loosing weight to get into the police academy.
Thanks
Hi everyone
Just dropping a quick note - Hope you all had a great lunch today!
The 2 hr class was filed with alot of info mostly about gastric but also lap banding. Now from here my dr sends the referrel to Richmond (or SSF?) and within a month I should recieve a letter or call letting me know when orientation will be held for me...looks like alot of waiting ahead of me....
Well talk to ya later!!
well, I have decided on getting the band and have my first info class this coming friday.
i have ONE FRIEND out of my batch that is being SO NEGATIVE and all she keeps telling me is how I am going to have extra skin and find out how much its going to cost me to have it removed. Any time I even MENTIONED lapband she says "have you asked how much for skin removal?"
has anyone else delt with a non helpful friend?
I assume its her insecurties with herself, but i really dont know! as I told my mom, im not worried about skin, that can be fixed but me dying from being heavy, the soreness i have in my knees, etc. is more to worry about :tongue_smilie:
Hi everyone!
In order for my dr. to send the referral to the "bariatric" dept for future info, etc. they are making me take a new mandatory 2 hr info class.
Has anyone else had to do this yet? What do they cover? How long after did you see the next step?
Thanks!:smile2:
hi everyone
cant stay i got food posion from our work BBQ yesterday and ive been none stop throwing up...my boss sent me home and i slept from 10-1, then 1-4....sheesh...
Good morning ladies!
When it came to work, did you tell people you were planning to have the procedure done? I havent told anyone, I figured I would wait until I know for sure.
Ideas?
Well heard back from my Dr., and she said I do have to take this class before anything can happen. Darn! hehe!
Am I the first in the group who has to take this?
