Just got a call from my surgeons office with my surgery date..... November 27th... wow it seems so far away.... I am just happy to have a date will be banded in memphis tn by Dr. M and dr.T

My surgeon requires an EGD to be done.. Has anyone else had this test done. And what should I expect?:help:

I need to vent. I have been on this journey to get the lapband done since Janurary. I found a surgeon and started my insurance required 6 month diet.! I was assigned a caseworker from HELL. during the inital visit she told me to sign some release of information slips for my medical records! She did not contact me at all during 6 month diet. I decided to call my pcp and all the dr's offices I signed releases for and SHE NEVER got any of my medical records. So I got the sent all the documentation to her and it sit on her desk for 3 weeks before she FAXED the info in to the insurance company on Sept 7th. I called the insurance company on Tuesday of this week and found out that I HAD BEEN APPROVED FOR surgery. Today is Thursday... SHE still has not called to let me know that I was approved! ... Am I over reacting.....I have been waiting patiently to get this done.... I still have to get pre-op labs and an EGD and all of those test must be normal before I can proceed with surgery... The rate my case worker is moving..... It will be CHRISTMAS! sORRY...... Just had to vent... Am I over reacting?

I just got off the phone with the insurance company(aetna)And After all the hard work and the waiting I have finally been approved. I am now happy but also nervous ... !!!!!!!!! what things do I need to do pre op?
