~Primrose~ 24 Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) Is there anybody near Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area in PA who would like to chat. I'm completely new to the forum. I just started the pre-surgical work to have my procedure in January. I believe I'm going with the sleeve. I would love to make some new friends who can relate to this whole experience. Thank you!!

I was really nervous starting this whole journey but now I am getting excited and can't wait for my procedure. Seeing how it works for everyone makes me feel a lot better about the choice I am making. 1 alcn1derlnd reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XYZXYZXYZ1955 675 Posted July 23, 2017 Hi, I'm in NY state, in the Catskills, but lived in PA years ago (Carbondale and then State College). I'd encourage you to spend some time on this site--there's a HUGE variety of topics discussed. And for sheer encouragement when you want or need it, check out some of the threads of before/after pictures! Sooooo inspiring! 2 ~Primrose~ and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
