I know, I can hear the comments already but I am frustrated with the wait for my paperwork to be received by my WLS doctor. I had to have a stress test-14 June , then wait while the doc went on vacation-10 July,and now wait on them to finish the paperwork and mail to my WLS doc! I'm calling the WLS coordinator again on Tuesday with the fervent hope that all paperwork is received and I can be scheduled for my final consult with the surgeon. It will be a miracle if I can have my WLS in August. Sigh.

My best wishes to you. Seems like it takes forever. Do stay on top of everything and make sure things are sent when they were suppose to be esp to the ins co.

I'm not good @ waiting either, using the time to make chicken & beef stock, get Isopure, stock the pantry w sf liquids / Protein and get did of junk. Pre op apt is 8th. Need to diet until then, all other stuff finished yesterday. Struggling a bit w food cause I have sore throat, but doing better. Hope things speed along for u!

Singing: "The waiting is the hardest part". Stay strong, it will all happen when it's supposed to happen, but it doesn't hurt to stay on top of things either. :)

Okay, it's not quite as good as a surgery date but my WLS coordinator said my paperwork is finally complete. Yay! Tomorrow I get scheduled for my final surgeon consult.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
