Mega_100 146 Posted August 21, 2015 I hope that you will be able I attend some support groups post op. I know they're offered thru dr Glucks office in Ludington. Yes, I'd like to make it happen--whether through Dr Gs office or online--but I'm in Lansing, unfortunately. Fortunately, though, I think there are some around here, too.

Mega_100 146 Posted August 21, 2015 I am beside myself with excitement and anticipation. My VSG is scheduled for 9/1 with Dr Schram at Blodgett Hospital. I had my "Final Decision" appointment today, and he had an opening for the 1st so I took it! Met with the NUT and got on the pre op diet on the spot. Pre op appointment is Monday. I am so excited for the next step on the journey! That's awesome, congrats! Nice when things fall together like that ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Comicbookguy 26 Posted September 3, 2015 Had my sleeve done August 18 in Grand Rapids at Blodget by Dr. Jon Schram. If anyone is reading this who has not had the surgery but is thinking about it I highly recommend him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grruss 9 Posted September 3, 2015 Had my sleeve done August 18 in Grand Rapids at Blodget by Dr. Jon Schram. If anyone is reading this who has not had the surgery but is thinking about it I highly recommend him. The surgery was two days ago, and so far, so good. Schram is a good guy, and the staff here at Blodgett has been great. Going home today. We'll see how that goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ladybrinkman 30 Posted December 9, 2015 Hi michigan sleevers! I go on Thursday 12/10/15 for my consult, nutrition class and psych evaluation. I can't wait! I'm seeing dr. Brian Gluck at life without limits in Muskegon mi. Anyone worked with him? I have BCBS of Michigan and they seem all on board for it from when I call and speak with them but I'm so scared I won't get passed thru! I'm 5'4" 302lbs. My BMI is 51.83 as of right now. Per the insurance company I won't be required to do the 6 month medically monitored diet, but I'm so scared that rug is going to be pulled! I'm so ready to start taking better care of myself and get the sleeve done. I'm so ready to get myself healthy for my kids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
