Hey everyone! I'm new to this group, I haven't had surgery yet, and quite honestly I don't know when my surgery will be scheduled for. I am getting nervous. I feel like I have been at this for ages, but I know that's me just being impatient.
The program I am in is pretty intensive (don't get me wrong, that's a good thing-- I am getting so much info) but it is exhausting.
I have had to go to orientation, 2 appts with my coordinator, one with my surgeon, 2 appts with a dietician, 2 support groups, and EGD, board of surgeon approval, had to lose 5% of my weight, and do an online education course...and now I have to do my psych eval and pre-op education before I can even be considered for scheduling.
I'm really happy that everyone seems to be really supportive and accepting here, and look forward to networking with everyone!
