Great question, I just decided to do the same.

You can find it in the Groups section :-)

Please feel free to post!!!!

I thought it would be great to create a group specifically for Kaiser Sleevers. Join and share your Kaiser WLS experience!

Thanks jdhenin for sharing your experience. Glad everything turned out ok for you, I am hoping the same.

Thanks MilkD, I am praying for the best.

SML1997...thank you so much I appreciate the prayers. I am keeping my head up and trusting in God, I just was a bit discouraged and thought "Great a possible Sleeve set back" . I can just see what happens with the CT scan.

Thanks smb, I agree...I am grateful whatever it is was caught, rather than me never knowing there could possible be an issue.

Thank you for the prayers, as I am praying it is nothing serious!

Well right when I thought I was almost done with this process. I get a call from Dr. Ismeal (Kaiser) saying that there was a shadow growth on my kidney. I now have to have a CT Scan done to make sure that it is not Cancer, am so ughhh right now. More so irritated, after all this that I have been through with just make the decision to go forth with WLS and then to have gone through the entire Options process and all tests and labs to find out there is the damn thing on my Kidney...Sheesh can a fat girl something to just go right , without having to jump through hoops??? I am little scarred, but I know I trust God so that's all I can do is trust at this point.

Thanks for sharing, I am feeling much better now know that you went through the same process as I did today.

Can anyone tell me how long did it take for the ultrasound test? I think I kind of made myself paranoid today during my test. The technician took a quite a bit of time to complete the test, I guess I started overthinking the test. It took 25 -30 minutes, can anyone tell me how long theirs took? I know that I am just doing too much, but I just don't want anything to hinder me from getting Sleeved!!!!

I too and worried about that, I have already started taking 1000mg a day (1 pill) to maybe help hair thining when I get sleeved. I am interested to know others experiences, good luck to you!

Congrats, please keep us updatded. I hope mine is as quick!

I am Prayering for safe procedure and speedy recovery. How exciting!

Thank you for sharing your experience, wishing you continued strength in your recovery!

Congrats to closer to your goal....

Congrats to you!!!

Congrats to you!!! When is surgery date? Also what is the time frame from approval to surgery date? I am awaiting my medical review appointment on July 20th. Any info would help!

SML1997, I am right there with you. I just finished my Options classes in Corona a week before you did. I have my medical interview on the 20th, and just stucking in limbo until then. I am pretty confident that I won't have anything to worry about but of course it's that not knowing part that bugs but what can you do? Please let us know how your appointment goes, always good to have someone going through the same process as I am.
