I am starting the process with Waldrep, in my first meeting there were less than 30 people. How are you doing? I would like to find a support group actually IN Sacramento, not a surrounding area, anyone body know of one?

I am starting the process to be banded, I am looking for a support group to go to, I have many questions, which were not really covered in the group to start the process, can anyone help out?

If I get the ok from Waldrep, he will be doing my surgery. Have you had any kind of problems, does the port stick out or bother you, what kind of food can you eat after?

I am with Sutter/HealthNet. If your not a member are you paying for all this yourself? I am just starting and was given a referal to a doctor in Roseville, it is not done down here if you have Sutter/HealthNet. You have to go to a group, they take pictures, weigh you and give you a ton of other paperwork to fill out, also papers for labs, you have to get all that done turn back all the paperwork you have to sign and go to another group BEFORE you have the consult with the surgeon, then he decides if are are able to have it.

I am just starting the process with Sutter/HealthNet. You MUST go to Roseville for everything. And I have to go through TONS of paperwork, tests. I would like to talk to people who have already had surgery, I have many questions. Can anyone help me out, is there a group in Sacramento to visit?

Is there a group in Sacramento? I am just getting started with the porcess and hearing all kinds of things, I am going to have alot of questions. I am having to go to Roseville for the surgery, there is no one in Sacramento that is under HealthNet.
