  1. Misfit In Band Land

    I joined awhile back as I prepared for my surgery scheduled for 10/30.
    But my insurance company, put gastric surgeries at my hospital on hold for accredidation to be decided. I love the idea of wanting the hospital to be top notch, but if they are ok to other companys, then why not them.
     
    I began my classes, nutritionist meetings, surgeon meetings, counselor meetings in August.
    Began and finished my pre op testing in September.
     
    So Oct 30, came and went, I continue to read posts and learn lots and "meet" the coolest people.
    But I just don't feel like I belong. I have no advise or experiences to share.
     
    The insurance company is suppose to decide by Friday, but I am in a funk and don't feel hopeful.
    So what have I done since the 30th, gain 5 lbs.
     
    I've learned about stucks, but I have a different kind of lump in my throat. : (
