ahillig 136 Posted March 31, 2019 I saw my surgeon for my consult last month but April is the month everything gets going for me. I have my psych eval on Tuesday, have my first nutrition visit on the 8th, and then my EGD on the 11th. Having a month between the initial consult and then scheduling the appts to get me to the surgery date has given me time to really let it settle that this process is going.

pjrn 0 Posted March 31, 2019 Just starting this process. My insurance approved. I am 66, low BMI, lots or all of the comorbidities. Scared and wondering if my age will be a problem. A little worried about the recovery because for 18 years I worked in a recovery room as an RN so I know too much. Am I too old? I feel the complications from my diabetes far outway the possible problems with gastric sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CelticBeautyEvolving 23 Posted April 4, 2019 My first visit with the surgeon is April 11th as well. And I need to have my procedure in July, hopefully, so I am motivated to get my appts in as quickly as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
