Thanks. I should have a response soon. Im soo anxious! Im more than ready!!!

depending on how much you make per year, you may qualify for Indiana Hip, or Medicaid??

I got a surgery date- 09/14/10. Now we are just waiting for approval from anthem. My pre-op class is 09/01. Doing pre-op testing this week or next. Im soo anxious.. I hope i get approved!

hi. im sending friend requests now :thumbup:

Mine is themaxwellfamily@yahoo.com

same here... a lady in my church had bypass, and had a ton of problems after surgery. she lost a ton of blood, blood transfusions, she had to walk with a cane for 2 years, and now she is blind.

my bmi is 44. im going to do it

just found out that my surgeons office doesnt require patients to do pre-op diet? i think i may do it the week before the surgery just to prepare my body. What do you think?:redface:

good luck to both of you!

Had my consult with Dr. Gomez today. He was pretty short and to the point.... He reccomends the Realize band instead of the Lapband. He says that the sucess rate is higher and etc. Dr. Gomez's office is going to fax everything to Anthem on Monday and i should have an answer within 5-7 business days. Im really excited. If all goes well, i will be banded in September. Well... i need to get back to reading more about the Realize band.

Thats what ive been doing too! I love walk away the pounds!

you go girl!

I go tomorrow for my consult with the surgeon, and for EKG , H pylori test, and chest Xray. I am told that everything will be sent to Anthem by Monday. Im nervous too. im told that Anthem is super fast!
