Ive already done sleep study...I have sleep apneaPsych and Nut are the only othrr appts then?

having school with dr kane as well! Surgery is not scheduled yet. 6-8 weeks. How soon did they call you to set up psych and nutrition dr? Just saw Dr Kane today. TIA

Try goodwill for scrub. They usually have a good selection.

thank you So how long does it usually take to get a surgery date?

Question, Do you go to Mexico twice then. Once for a consultation and another for the surgery? Do they do any preop lab work? How does all of that work? How long does it take? TIA

Im a night shifter labor nurse as well. Im so nervous to organize a routine while working nights and then off. It has really screwed me up. Ive been on nights for 13 yrs. I would love to get onto a day shift just for normalcy but hate the thought of working days. Love my night crew!

Hi! My name is Kim and ive been a labor and delivery nurse for 13 yrs! Im in the very beginning of this process and have my consultation appt with Dr Kane out of Hoffman Estates Illinois on October 29th! Wanting the sleeve. Im 5'1 and am at my heaviest 240lbs. Looking forward to taking back my life!

Attended the seminar today and my first consultation appt is October 29th with Dr Kane! Super excited.

Congrats on your new sleeve! Hope all is well!

So excited for you! Good luck!

Thank you

Thank you. That helps! I know it will be different but I just dont want to be giving up things I still would like to enjoy doing.

Thank you everyone! Now for another question. My husband and I have always enjoyed going out to dinner (go figure right) but we love to go and enjoy each other without kids. I know I will need a huge lifestyle diet change but will I be able to enjoy different foods at some point. Just lots of left overs? Seems so silly but I dont want to give up everything entirely.

I am attending a seminar on Saturday to learn more on each of them. But I want to know what made you choose one over the other? And those that have been banded and are now having a revision to sleeve why? Cant make up my mind.

How do I add people as friends on here? I have a galaxy phone and plus im a newbie! Lol

Thanks Katie! Yes, lets keep in touch! Good luck to you! Thanks so much for the info!

Illinois! Good luck on your journey! Wishing you all the best!

Thank you. Whats the cost?

Thanks everyone! Excited and nervous about this journey

Im from the chicago area myself! Looking to make an appt with dr from st Alexis as well. How long does it take to get your first consultation appt? How long before surgery date? Would love to keep in touch!

What made you go to mexico? The savings? What was your process like? How long was the whole process? Did you have to travel back and forth to mexico? Just curious. Do you get surgery quickly? TIA

All of you are such inspirations! You all look amazing! Congrats!

I sent you a message!

I cant answer any of your questions but I live close to you and want to know what surgeon you are seeing? I havent made an appt yet with anyone. Looking at Alexian Bros. ? Please message me with any info you could give. Would LOVE support and info!

I dont have a date yet. In very beginning of process. Going to consultation soon!
