my story on here is pretty much the same as everyone else. i've been on lots of diets and lost lots of weight only to regain it with a few extra pounds. i'm having my surgery at the kane center with dr. peter rantis. i've looked into this and have researched it since 2006. i attended the seminar on october 24th and had my consult on november 2nd. with dr. rantis. i will be seeing the cardiologist on november 10th & the pulmonologist on november 13th. the way it looks now i should have surgery before christmas! i have medicare so i'm not required to be on a supervised diet. i am on fast track. i have a serious heart condition and losing the weight would make my heart work a lot less strenuous. my personal cardiologist thinks i will be fine for surgery but i have to see their cardiologist since mine is in indiana. makes since. i will try to post as things progress. i'd love to chat with others going through this anytime.
