mmh

I'm scheduled for December 11th. I know I'm late to the thread, but I'd like to keep up with everyone else. My doc has me on a liquid diet 7 days before surgery. YIPEE!! It's taken me 6+ months to get to this point - jumped thru all of the insurance hoops :w00t:. Looking forward to keeping in touch.

Jumped thru all of the insurances hoops and surgery is scheduled for Dec. 11, 2009. Dr. wants me on a liquid diet for 7 days prior to surgery - don't know what to expect - except hunger pains :biggrin:! Worried because I've failed at every diet I've ever tried. Will this work? It is my last option! Any information or helpful hints are appreciated. Thanks. Michelle :thumbup:

The doctor that I'm seeing charges a $375.00 fee for things like advertising, web-site maintenance, etc. I'm ok with it, but the fee you mentioned is extraordinary!!!

I would love to hear from anyone that has this procedure done in the St. Louis area. I am looking for a recommendation for a physician that you like. I just found out that my insurance will cover the procedure as long as it is deemed medically necessary and not cosmetic. I am hoping that this is a solution to a life long problem. Also, just looking for your opinioins about the surgery.
