Getting really nervous now

I just have to post and say that I am feeling a bit anxious today! I called the Insurance Co yesterday tosee where we were at and they said that things were moving right along... :rolleyes2:the Surgeon that I have chosen has been approved, (on 10/26) and they had a Reference number for the Hospital. Now it is thier partners job to approve the hospital and that shouldn't take to long. Just knowing that I am have way to being approved is making butterflies :scared2: in my stomach!!! I just know that I will be getting banded in January and I can't wait. I realize that January is still 2 months away but wow... It's ONLY 2 months!!!

I totally understand how you are feeling. I am scheduled to be banded on January 4th, it could have been sooner but I chose to wait due to the Holidays, traveling, etc. ( or maybe it was because I knew I would be able to eat at Thanksgiving and Christmas) lol. Anyway, I certainly understand how you feel, one day I am so excited to do this and the next I am having second thoughts. I have been reading about all the pain that people experience after the surgery and it really scares me.

That is kind of funny, because I had a liver transplant in April,2008 and made it just fine. You would think this would be a piece of cake compared to that!!

I wish you luck and will try to keep in touch with you. If you would like to e-mail me my address is Connie_Blackmon@bellsouth.net. It would be good to have someone to talk to who is going through the same questions and fears that I am.
