I never thought I'd be able to have WLS of any kind because of financial resons (no insurance), but the hubs & I sat down and worked it out so that we could finance it! I went to my initial consultation yesterday morning and moved forward while I was there with the labs, pulmonary testing, physical and EKG. Also, I have to have a sleep study done & am having it done this weekend. Worst case scenario, I'll be banded within 90 days....of course I'm hoping for sooner!!! I'm so excited I could scream!!

Thanks carolinagirl! Im actually kind of glad I'm having the sleep study (with or without the lap band). Several family members have sleep apnea and I have most of the same symptoms. Im expecting the equipment today via Fedex and will be doing the study at home over the weekend, so maybe it will be a little less traumatizing than being at an office trying to sleep in a strange place!! Lol!!
