Oh ok, that's good to know. I don't have any heart problems, just sleep apnea and I just had a sleep study last month. so I'm just trying to find out if there would be anything that would hold up the process.

Are you happy with your sleeve and results @@GENNYOSKINNY ?

hey girl hows the process going? Do you have a date yet

[Charm82 18]

@@GENNYOSKINNY Hey girlie! No date yet, currently in my 2nd month of a 3 month program at Healthy Steps in Santa Rosa (Partnership pays 100%, yaaay). My surgeon set a 25lb pre-op weight loss goal so I figure my surgery date will be around June or July. My Psych evaluation is on May 22nd and hope to schedule my EGD soon. I got my blood work, EKG, and chest X-ray done some weeks back. I'm sooooo looking forward to getting this tool to help me.

I was just about to make a thread about this but someone beat me to it! Anyways I wanted to know the same thing. Does anybody know if Partnership Solano Health does Gastric Bypass or not? I was set to get my surgery then I lost my insurance (I used to have Blue Cross Medi-Cal and Sutter Select) because I was under my dad's (turned 26) then I'm trying to find someplace that will help me get the surgery because I'm so unhealthy and sick. Not only that I'm secretly ALWAYS in pain. So it would be helpful if anybody knows. Thanks!
