I have had some headaches, but they are from the caffiene withdrawals. I'm off all caffiene now. I'm going to ask that they video the entire procedure and talk me through it, as if I was awake. Good luck to you!

After the 3-4 month pre-surgery hurdles done, I am one week out. Tomorrow( 08 Jan 13) is the required education meeting with my spouse. THey say it takes some 6-8 hours, we have scheduled all day. I am having a hiatial hernia repair at the same time, and all were approved by Anthem BCBS on the first round. I really think Michelle, the Insurance coordinator at IU Health (Bariatric) is the real reason everything went through so fast. Looking foward to having this done, but still very nervous. I have really struggled with the Pre-surgery diet, have been about a 90%er with it, some days good, some not so good. My surgery date is next Monday, 01-14-13. I really appreciate all the forums, they help answer alot of questions. Later.......
