I'm about 65 miles south of st. louis but i will be having my surgery there. Good luck on the approval.

What protein drinks or mixes do you recommend?

Congratulations!! I also got my surgery date for April 22!!! It's so exciting. Good luck and keep us posted.

I start my pre op diet on April 18th, 5 days prior to my surgery. My surgery will be in St. Louis with Dr. Minkin.

Finally got my date..woo hoo. I'm super excited.

Anyone else having the band on this date???

I had my first consultation with the surgeon Jan. 14. Went for all my testing(dietician, physch consult, ekg, stress test, chest x-ray) on Feb. 9th. Paperwork submitted to ins. on Feb. 19th. Approved March 24th.

I got the news yesterday from the insurance company that i was approved!!! Now i'm waiting on the surgeons office to call with my surgery date.

I'm from Missouri, about 65 miles south of St. Louis. I completed all my testing Feb. 9. All the insurance needs now is medical clearance from my primary doc which I go to him on Thursday. So that being said hopefully within the next month I will have my surgery.

I am currently waiting for my surgery date.
