Hi everyone,

My name is Jen and I'm from NJ. I had VSG on August 3, 2011. In Sept. I developed a leak which nearly destroyed me mentally. I'm still having some issues from it - hoping my doctors can figure out what to do. Anyway, I'm glad to be a member here and getting to know you all.

Welcome Jen! I'm also from NJ. Hope everything can be resolved soon for you. I'm sure you will find a lot of info and support on here! I know I have.

Just wondering if you don't mind saying which hospital/doctor you had you surgery with. I'm having my surgery sometime this March. Thanks :)

Hello committed,

I am from new jersey as well. Like you im having surgery the end of march. Are you having it here in the states? I'm having mine done in Mexico self pay

@Jen I will pray you an extra speedy recovery and future blessings.

Hi Realwmn, Yes I'm having my surgery at the Valley Hospital in Ridgewood sometime in March hopefully. I have already been approved just finishing up some preop testing. Hope everything goes well for you in Mexico. I have heard so many wonderful things about having it done there. Best wishes! :)

P.S. Make sure you join our jersey group in the groups section :D

Welcome, Jersey Girl! So sorry to hear that you have had complications. There are a couple of specific areas here devoted to people who have had complications. You may want to check out those threads. Perhaps their experiences will help you in dealing with your own. Glad that you're here! :)

Thanks everyone. I had my surgery at Robert Wood Johnson in Hamilton. My surgeon was Dr. Noyan. He's a great guy and I felt very comfortable with him. I'm seeing him tomorrow to go over my CAT results - hopefully all is well.

Jen
