Monday is the day!

I checked my insurance status on-line this morning and saw that it changed from pending to "APPROVED". Got a call from my surgeon this afternoon to tell me that they have scheduled me for Monday 10/25! I go tomorrow for my pre-op visit. I am so excited, but nervous as well! Many of the posts here have been very encouraging to me and I want to thank you all!

Hi Deb,

Good luck tomorrow and let us know how it goes. I am new on this board and am getting banded on Wednesday.

I made it through surgery with no problems. They did rush me through recovery and the swallow test quickly as they didn't want me to have to spend the night. Today I am still groggy from the anesthesia and have abdominal soreness but am able to swallow the Protein Drink and my Water. I am not a very patient person and waiting until 11/03 for my post-op visit is going to seem like forever to me. I hope that those having surgery soon will come through it as nicely as I did. Thanks for the kind thoughts and support!
