Hi there My sugery date is set for Feb 23 2010!! Janelle

Yes, we do have much in common. I wish you luck. I just contacted our insurance and they do not cover anything on elective surgeries, esp for spouses. We do have the money saved yet and can not take out a loan right now...well, will not..until we have cleaned up some credit card debt. So, I have been working a lot to do that. janelle

oooooooooooooooooooooh, lol. Yeah, kinda..I go on the chat once in a while. I feel kinda out of place cause I haven't been banded yet. Janelle

I have been in Cincinnati for 9 yrs..so yes.. I am lol . I love Cincinnati!

Hey there I am originally from Defiance...u near there? Have you had your surgery already? I see your ticker and assume so..but wasn't sure. Janelle

are you a xray tech? I am..just asking

sorry..I fit into many categories..and thought no everyone looks at every forum..i know I don't.

I was wondering if anyone has had there Lap band surgery at Middletown's Hospital, old or new. What was your experience like? How was your results? Anyone thinking about having there surgery there? I am thinking about it in September. janelle

I was originally going to be banded by Dr. Curry. I went for an office visit and met him. Now my husband switched jobs and if I have my surgury done at Middletown there is a good chance for more insurance coverage. Anyone know anything about this? Janelle

I will be banded sometime in January 08...cause of finances. I am very excited though! Good Luck to all! Janelle

I am originally from Defiance..but born in Toledo! All my family are still up there. I live in Cincinnati now Good Luck, Janelle
