Me too, My surgery is on Thursday also. I am so happy that the last two years of waiting and planning is finally going to pay off. It has been a rough road but I keep on focusing on the end result. Good Luck on your surgery!

Thanks Girl!

Let's check back as soon as we can to see how each other's doing.

Are you staying in the hosp or is it out-patient for you? My ins. company approved me for a 2 night stay, but all he people in the surgeon's office - including the surgeon himself - say that I'll be just fine and want to come home. I hope they are right!

Good luck - God Bless....

Linda

Hello,

I just wanted to say hi and see how your surgery went. My surgery went really well but I had to end up staying the night at the hospital. My poor fiance had to sleep on the tile floor because there were no more cots in the hospital. I am really really really sore around the port site. Well I hope everything is going well with you and that your surgery went well. Good Luck ....we both are on our way to a brand new life!!!!!!!:thumbdown:

horseygirl, are you still happy with Dr. Hunter? My PCP here in Sequim referred me to him. I jumped thru all the hoops, then discovered my employer has WLS excluded from their group plan. Currently appealing thru obesitylaw.com I only need cunsultations with the nutritionist and anasthesiologist before surgery. Anyhow, how is Hunter and staff treating you?...Dan.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
