Hi Jillibean. I am Susan and having RNY Dec 26, 2013. I am on the peninsula and would love a buddy! Can't believe it is really happening.

I just found out late last week that my insurance approved my surgery and I now have a date of December 26th. I am really excited and also kinda freaked out. Originally I was supposed to have the sleeve but my surgeon called me last week and decided that the bypass would be the better surgery because of some other health issues that I have. I didn't think it was going to happen this quickly. My insurance is dropping me at the end of December and I will have new insurance by January 1st but they just seemed to be dragging their feet in approving me just so time would run out and they wouldn't have to pay. I was flabbergasted when the nurse telephoned me and said I was approved. If I wait and do it through my newer insurance it will be $4,0000 out of my pocket. So I'm on the schedule for the 26th. All I can say is I am grateful but scared.
