I just had an initial visit with my surgeon last week. I need to have a sleep study and a psych evaluation and then I have to wait to see if I get approval from my insurance company. I should know in about 4-6 weeks if I'll be able to have the surgery. Wish me luck. :thumbup:

Thanks, I will. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions.

Hi Terri

Welcome to VST, good luck on your upcoming surgery. Are you having a band or are you a revision to a sleeve? Wish you all the luck in the world!

I'm hoping to have the sleeve surgery. First surgery.

Great news, I was not sure if the bandmom meant you were getting the band, or if you had children in a band. I'm so happy to hear you are getting the sleeve, it is such a wonderful tool. I made the mistake of getting the band first, worst mistake of my life. I wish you good luck on your surgery and happy losing!!

Hey FabBy50. I didn't even think about that when I set up my account. :tongue_smilie:I've been so involved with my kids in marching band for the last 5 years and I've used the same user name for all my online accounts. I'm probably gonna confuse alot of people with that. Oh well. Sorry. :smile:
