CandiKiss 15 Posted July 11, 2012 Hello Darlings! So Tomorrow is the day I finally meet with my surgeon! The countdown is on baby! LOL...I'm ready but nervous. Do I receive my surgery date during the consultation? What should I expect? Any feedback will be great! Thanks in advance. 1 Spirit Fire reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mokee 588 Posted July 11, 2012 depends on what your insurance requests. It can be as much as 3-6 months is what I am reading. There are all kind of testing and nutritionists meetings. I am into it 1 month and with my insurance maybe sometime in October I hope. This first month has been many different tests. Good luck and we will make it.

Well with my surgeon all of those things are done before we can even been seen by him. So my blood work, meetings(4) with my NUT, mental evaluation and my insurance covers it. So I'm at the finally point. It's been a journey since Feb 16th! Good luck to u as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*susan* 1,709 Posted July 13, 2012 Yay, I am so happy you got your date, it won't be long now. My pre-op diet started two weeks before my surgery, and my surgeon's staff emailed it to me the week prior to starting it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
