done in just 4 appointments????

so as you may know i have gone back and forth on this whole thing. my Dr said that the insurance wouldn't cover it. people at work says it covered theirs, Dr take over 4 weeks to fax a paper and still hasn't done it, then says i need a sleep study. she schedules me a sleep study for 2 months away. i wait a few weeks and move it closer. i was really thrilled but then i thought, "this is stupid why am i going on that quacks opinion when their are people at work who has had it paid for????" so i talked to one of those people and she told me to go to a center of excellence. she went st Joseph (or something) in Lexington and the whole proses took 4 appointments.

 

i want it to get going but all this time dragging it out gives me time to think about it. i guess it would be better if i just dove into I'm getting scared cause i have to wait and so it feels like it will never happen and when i think that it will it freaks me out. i do know that i really have to do something about my weight now. if i keep waiting then I'm going to have so bad health problems. I'm 19 and my back is so bad i cant walk around after about or so cause i have to lie down. it feels like I'm folding in half back wards i hate it!!! any way my whole point of writing this is to tell you all that i may be rerouting myself on a better path to banding.
