Had my surgery consult today. Surgery set for January 27, 2017 My clinic is backed up and right now that's the date. I tried to stress how horrible my band is (daily vomiting and pain) but they just don't seem to get it!! I can't believe they don't save surgery spots for urgent causes like mine I'm considering going to the Patient Relations department of the hospital if I don't hear anything new better then January over the next week. Just not sure what to do and thinking about waiting another 5 months like this is torture

Thank you! I'm trying to stay positive about getting a date sooner but it's hard.

I was wondering would your gp be able to help push the date ahead - and I thought waiting for my Iron to go up was frustrating - I'm feeling lucky and blessed at the moment

He wrote me a letter that they have. My Counseller is going to call them next week for me.

I wish there was more I could do other then be a shoulder and an ear for you and think positive thoughts for you - I wish there was a magic wand I could wave for you to make it right

That's ok. Just having someone to share with, besides my hubby, is a nice feeling. I haven't really told anyone else what's going on. I've been waiting to get my surgery date. I left a message for the program manager I've been dealing with today. And I sent an email to the nurse who saw me last week. I'm considering emailing the surgeon who saw me and ordered the band be deflated, but don't want to push to many buttons. Will wait and see if one of the ladies will get back to me first.
