I will have my final weigh in on 7/3/14 and then my paperwork will go to the insurance for approval. I have seen all the dr's all I'll need is the last 2 test for pre-op. I started this process in Feb. and finally getting there. Scary but good. I have my dr's, coworkers and friends support. Only one has question me are you sure you want to do this. I'm have high blood presure, lower back pain and have fibormaylgia. I'm hoping to have my operation in Aug. I've learned alot of information reading all the post.
