Anyone getting "Spivak'd" around May 23?

That's my magic date....by hook or crook...(insurance or no). They've sent in my insurance but I KNOW I will be declined. Guaranteed (cuz I haven't been on the prescribed number of months on a program). I'm gonna do it either way. Scheduled for May 23....hoping I'll be fit for work the following Tuesday after Memorial day. That gives me surgery plus 5 days.

Hi Kacee,

I'm scheduled for the 24th and I'm planning to go back to work on Tuesday too. Probably a little overly ambitious but I really need to as I am self pay too. I'm nervous!

I am scheduled the 14th, with my pre-op appt this Friday. Looking forward to it, but NOT looking forward to the 10 day liquid diet then 2 weeks of MORE liquid....but I truly believe it will all be worth it! Good Luck!

Hello Everybody, Just Had My Procedure Done And It's Been 5 Days Already. Finally Reliefed From All The Pain. I Had No Idea The After Pain Would Be That Bad, Thank God For My Husband Helping Out. I Was Finally Able To sleep On One Of My Sides Lastnight, The Other Side Still Hurts.

Good Luck Everyone!

Me too! I'm being banded on May 23rd by DR. Montgomery in Everett, WA at NWWLS.

So Excited. I too will be returning to work on tuesday.

It seems we all had the same idea in mind with memorial day being that monday. Fabulous timing.

Anyone else scared about anestesia?

I'm freakin out. I've never ever had a surgery before. YIKES!

I'm hoping to be banded May 24th or 25th to have the long weekend to recover. I hope we're not being too optimistic about going back to work on Tuesday!
