[wannabehealthy 0]

Yes, it's true!!!! After months of bad news, finally got the good news, I WILL BE GETTING MY SLEEVE! I must thank with all my heart, sleevejeani (formerly jeaniwantsasleeve) for her help with the appeals and IMR review board process. I could not have done it without her. Also thanks to tiffykins for her help. This board is awesome!! Next step is a follow up visit with my surgeon on Tuesday (they haven't seen me since April) and then hopefully I will get a surgery date-most likely in September. I am excited, scared, hopeful, nervous, happy, worried, so many emotions going on. I feel like I've just won a big prize! I still can't believe it!
