Marbear 41 Posted February 15, 2013 This week I've done several of the pre-op requirements, including the ultrasound, CT scan, support group, nutrition and exercise class, and the psych eval. I think I may have hit the support group on an off night; it wasn't very helpful for me at all. I told the evaluator that I'd found a really active online forum for this procedure, and that I've learned more lurking for an hour here than in any of the classes and groups combined so far. He was very enthusiastic about it and wanted me to keep up with this site. So thanks, all. Everyone has been extremely helpful and I really appreciate being able to read about so many different experiences! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ISleevedIt 380 Posted February 15, 2013 Hi Marbear, I agree with you. this site is very helpful! I am a week away from surgery and I've been on this site practically everyday since I started my journey back in August. Are you getting close to having a surgery date?

Marbear 41 Posted February 15, 2013 I've been so encouraged by other people sharing tips and tricks, frustrations and also how they've moved past setbacks. I don't feel so crazy lol. I also found a name for my sudden panicky inhalation of all things edible (last supper syndrome), and am ready to tighten up and lose the liver pounds pre surgery! No date set yet, I am hoping for end of March but I suspect it will be more like April something. Best wishes to you JSI, and congrats on meeting all the goals on that pre op list!
