Had Consult Today

Hi all,

I had my consult visit today with Dr. Marvin here in Houston TX. I was so nervous this morning that I passed up his office twice trying to locate it. Once I was inside the ladies in his office made me feel a lot better. I have BCBS FEP and they require a 3 month weight loss plan plus a psych visit. Some the requirements/labs that are needed by his office I don't have to go through because I just had a complete overhaul done in Nov 2011 and they could use those test, which is a good thing. I have a positive attitude about the whole process. Just wanted to share to story with you all because either you're going through or have already been through it. Thanks for listening/reading..

Mrs. KC, you and Artsy have dates for surgery already and I still have 2more nut visits to complete before I can even think about getting sleeved.. Good luck to both of you ladies, I'll see you on losers bench when I get there.. Keep us posted on how things went. You're in my prayers.

Thank u both. I guess it depends on the insurance and their requirements. Mine didn't have any. I was a nervous wreck until my daughter came in and said, mom u will be alright, u have to have a little faith, the size of a mustard seed! God is good!

Yes he is and she is right.. You will be just fine.. Sending prayers up for Mrs. KC who's having surgery.

God of power and might please be with Mrs. KC during gastric sleeve surgery tomorrow. Her body is your creation, O Lord. Guide the surgeon’s hand that changes it, that it might heal and function better, to your great glory. Amen

Take care and keep us posted...

Kim

Mrs. KC, you are in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery. Please keep us posted. I will be in you shoes next Monday at 9:00am. Same surgeon. I really want to know how it goes for you. Take care.
