I'm set for surgery with Dr Schmitt on the 27th! I loved his staff and him and know he and Dr Miles are very nice Christian men and they have an excellent record with the sleeve!!!

I am self pay and the sleep study was actually marked in my packet from the doc as a requirement but once I met with Dr Schmitt and he saw my young age and that I am a lower BMI he said it wasn't required. I just had to do the pre op blood work, and I have to do the nutrition class on the 20th. I did consider doing the sleep study anyway for a bit and my insurance would have paid for one at a sleep study clinic but not the home study and we have EXCELLENT insurance.

Sorry I'm not much help in the requirement department! :(

Actually that is great for me. I'm barely at 40 bmi. And the sleep study is one of my concerns. I do t want to have to travel 3 hours back and forth to bham for 14 days. I'm also a college student and I work so time is key for me.
