Lainie 0 Posted September 14, 2004 The consultation went well (I think). The surgeon (Michael Thomas) seems very competent and caring. But there is a ton of pre-op stuff to do even though I am a cash-pay patient! Oh well, at least I will know what kind of health I am in from head to toe after this! I can't wait until I get all this done and get a surgery date. Although, I am a little overwhelmed at this point! Lainie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New Hope 37 Posted September 14, 2004 Lainie, you'll be glad that you got a clean bill of health when those tests are done. In the meantime, start drinking (but not w/meals) tons of Water and walking regularly. You're on your way to being a Bandster! Yeah! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
