berniec 166 Posted April 4, 2012 Well I got my approval letter today from my insurance company. It's really starting to sink in that this is gonna happen. My surgery date is April 23rd. I start my pre-op diet April 9th. I'm really starting to get nervous now. Lol. I know that's normal but I'm probably gonna be crazy by the time I get my surgery. 2 Anume 937 and buffalogal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
