Im right here with you. I had my seminar date in august 2010. Seen the entire bariatric team. I have been approved. I even allowed myself to get super excited and they told me to call monday for my date. I was jumping all over my house, in joy. Then monday came and they informed me my surgery date is november 7 2011! She was giving me pro op diet dates and stuff and i was numb. I couldnt even ask her questions i just could believe they were gonna make me wait a whole year before giving me the surgery. After i got over the shock of it i called them back and asked why so long. They said they are booked all the way up till then. I just cant believe it they had me do my labs and everything that you do pre surgery. Those cant be good a year from now. It was certainly a blow i didnt see coming. In august i even asked if they have a waiting list they said no. Im just really bummed. Sorry to be the downer, but on a good note at least your closer than me. Hope all goes well with your surgery and i wish you much success!
