I am getting banded on 11/2/10. I am so excited. I went yesterday to pre-register at the hospital and I am all set. Anyone else getting banded on the 2nd? If so, I would love to hear from you. Thanks

It's lookin' like a CigNO

I also have Cigna. my plan also required 6 months supervised diet, sleep study, therapist visit, nutritionist appointment and a letter of medical clearance from my PCP. It took about 4-6 weeks to hear back but I did get approved. I will be banded on 11/3. Hang in there it will work out for you. -

I am a November Bandster. I am having my surgery on 11/2/10. I am so excited as this has been a year in the making with all the requirements from my Insurance Co. I am ready for the next phase of my life. -
I am glad things worked out for you. I know that the waiting game is the hardest part. I am anxious and nervous at the same time. Hopefully I will have my date next week. Take care.

Congratulations...I know exactly how you feel...Things will be fine. Keep us posted on your progress!!

Me too. I have Cigna and had to wait about 4-6 weeks to get my approval. I had to do the 6 mos supervised diet as well. I'm at the home stretch so hopefully I will be banded in Oct. Dr George Woodman (Memphis Tn) is doing my surgery. Keep me posted on your progress.

I heard that the Syntrax Nectar is good as well. Did you order yours online or were you able to find it at a local retailer? I hope to be banded in Oct or early Nov. I go for my EDG on 10/5. I had all my pre-op testing done today. I am so ready!! -

I go for my pre-op testing today @ 9:30 and my EGD is scheduled for 10/5/10. I hope to have my surgery in Nov. Topazz my B-day is also Nov 13. So I also consider this my b-day present to myself. I hope everything works out for you and all the Nov Bandsters. I will keep you posted once I get my date. I am so ready for this. Good Luck all!!! -
I am having my pre-op testing on today and my EGD on 10/5/10. I should then get my date if all goes well. I am curious as to what types of liquids, mushies, etc. I will need to get through the first few weeks. I would like to stock up once I get my date so that that part is covered. Any suggestions:drool:
