  4. Hi there my name is Dawn in from SW Florida and i met with the surgon today, Tricare approved me 5wks ago which took a day to approve me, but 5 wks to get in to see the surgon, i loved him, so sweet and caring and explained everything, i dont seems worried at all (fo now) so now i amw waiting for the office to call back for i guess the next step or blood work, a scope or my stomach i guess, he said Tricare sometimes does not make you do nutition or pysc but we will wait and see, nothing like getting this done before the holidays of eating, i guess thats why i need this... I look forward to sharing my story and hearing about eveyone here
