That was a quick response from your insurance company. You are lucky. I did not even go there. Am paying privately. But I want to wish you the very best. I am a bit nervous, but sooo looking forward to starting this new journey in my life.

Hello, I was wondering what some of your initials stand for - PB and slime? Do I really want to know? !! But I am to be banded 4/12 so I am trying to get the most education I can, and be prepared for success on this journey. Thanks for any help with the lingo.

I am going to be banded one day prior to you in Mexico with Dr. Ortiz. I wish you the best. I am also new to this forum, but have been reading since I scheduled my surgery. Just feeling brave enough now to post. Let's keep in touch.

Hello to everyone. I am scheduled for surgery with Dr. Ortiz next month. I have been doing research for 6 months. I am a surgery nurse myself, and I enjoyed very much their frank discussion and invitation to come early and observe. They use modern equipment, the same instrumentation in many cases that we use in our OR's. At any rate, I still have the same "butterflies" as all of you. I am so looking forward to gaining control of this last area of my life that I can't seem to handle. Thanks for listening.
