debihaines

I live in Oregon (Gresham) - east of Portland. We bought a new 5th wheel RV in December and have only used it once so we're heading to the coast for a few days and then up to Washington near Mount St. Helens. I can't wait - especially since I had to buy all new clothes for the summer (even PJs)!!!!

... well the first one since I was 12. After wrestling with it to put it into the trunk of my car to get it home (and I have the bruises to prove it) my husband even bought one the next day. I'm just wobbling away to learn to ride again right now. There is a bike trail not too far away from home and we're taking our bikes when we go on vacation next month. I'm excited - and I don't care how stupid I look to other people - I'm having fun. :smile:

Anthem BC/BS paid for the surgery but they are not paying for any of the post-surgery visits; not for fills, checkups, anything. When I call they just say they are not a covered benefit - WHAT? Anyone have the same issues? What did you do?:smile:

Clear liquids all day tomorrow - don't have a time yet - they'll call me tomorrow. Good wishes for all of us!:clap2:

I've had all my evals and have my consultation with Dr. Jan on 11/5. Let me know if there's any info I can help you with. So far I'm very impressed with OWLS.:eek:

I'm just starting the process - I've had my sleep study and my other appointments are next week. Anyone banded by Dr. Emma Patterson? I'm anxious and nervous but very determined. Thanks! :whoo:

:clap2:... Last Thursday evening I had my sleep study. One 9/10 I go for one set of appointments - blood work, EKG, etc., and then on 9/13 I meet with the psychologist and nutritionist. One step closer.

We're in the Portland area. Let me know what you think of the seminar. The one we went to here was really informative and they gave us a binder with all the information.

Just got the call yesterday to setup my starting tests. Won't be until September but that's due to my vacation. A friend and I are doing this together after tons of research. I'm excited and a little nervous.:nervous

... got the call yesterday to set up my first testing appointments. I'm excited. Have to wait almost 8 weeks but this is my choice due to upcoming vacation. My oldest and dearest friend, SK, and I are doing this together. Wow!:scared:
