SuperFab 689 Posted January 7, 2014 I'll be sleeved February 18 in Norman, Oklahoma by Dr Lana Nelson. I'm actually from Durant, OK but think my surgeon is worth the drive. Any other February 18 sleevers? April Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rhw94123 115 Posted January 7, 2014 I definitely think it's worth driving to get someplace that seems great based on your research (I flew to Mexico myself !). Best wishes as you prep for your surgery! 1 SuperFab reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best wishes as you prep for your surgery! Thank you!! I actually almost went to Mexico for my surgery and then found out that my insurance would cover my surgery. Lots of knowledgable doctors there who have actually been doing the sleeve longer than most US doctors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperFab 689 Posted January 8, 2014 Thanks!! I live in west michigan, so Dr. Gluck is my surgeon, at Mercy hospital. It's in muskegon, mi. I'm so ready for this journey, I can't wait. Me too!! I have severe spinal stenosis and I'm so ready to take some of this pressure off my spine and hips. I've been on cloud 9 and smiling all the time since I just found out. I have to try really hard not to think about the IV, though. To me, that's the scary part. I know, weird. But I was told they can numb it. Maybe I won't pass smooth out this time. Lol Good luck! I know everything will go great!! April Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
