Now I have to wait 2 more stinking weeks!! LOL March 24th I'll go in to see Dr. Merriman in Shreveport. He's the first that will see me without going to a seminar. Hopefully, in between now and then I'll find a few more that will do the same.

Finally got the insurance junk figured out, I THINK!! We'll see, if I get a bill for the consults then we'll know that it wasn't figured out, LOL. Anyway, kind of excited but scared. Wow, am I really going to go through with getting 85% of my stomach cut out????

Any other Louisiana docs that ppl think rock, please post their names ASAP so I can try and meet as many as possible. Thanks!!

Congrats ! ! !

I am so glad you called him! I have an appointment as well on Mar. 24 at 9:45 a.m for a follow-up!

I hope everything goes well for you with him and with your insurance.

Grateful Heart, that's my appt time too! LOL Too funny!! I don't know your real name but you know mine so you'll have to holler at me while we are in the waiting room so we can introduce ourselves to each other. I told them that someone on here had recommended him but I couldn't tell them who because I didnt know your real name, LOL. So, now we'll be able to give credit where credit is due Look forward to meetin' ya!
