Miss Jessica

so today was my first visit with my surgeon for a consultation... i was a lil nervous at first but it felt like a normal dr visit. i found out with my insurance i only have to wait 3 months after doing all the lab tests, ekg, ultrasound, weigh in to make sure i stay on a diet and not gain any weight...etc for them to pay for it... wow i didnt think it was gonna be that close. i thought it would take over a year to have the surgery. everyone seemed really nice thank god. plus another good thing that has been off my mind about the surgery was to find out that my surgeon has done thousands of surgeries and his mortality rate, i believe thats how they put it, was a big ZERO!!! and i know that has bothered me for a while but now im ok to find out that no one has died while or after the surgery. so im very excited and probably gonna start making some youtube videos about my lil journey.

cool @VirginiaDee how long did they say you would have to wait before they can approve you the surgery?

I'm a 28yo female in lehigh acres florida. I'm new to this site and would love to know and learn from new people especially around my age who's is either going through the process of having surgery or is early post op surgery. I have my first consultation tomorrow with the surgeon and I am very excited and nervous st the same time
