Anyone Else in August?



Recommended Posts

I'm hoping this will bring some of you out of the woodwork! lol. I am planning on getting a band to sleeve revision done during my break in nursing school at the end of August. (I say hoping because I am waiting on insurance approval for now.)

Who else is out there waiting for the BIG DAY in a couple months?

hello, just found out today that my process will take only two months, if i had of know that i would have done all the doctors appointments back to back in stead of spacing them out, seems that the doctors i have now can get the ins company to move a little faster

anyway but the second week in aug i will be having mine....

I think as it gets closer to August, there will be more of us. Heck, my surgeon's office tried to schedule me for two weeks out. LOL! (Wish I could have done it then...KILLS me!)

MrsJ- YAY!!! :D

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
