Newme- I understand how you feel...there is a lot of waiting. I received my pre-op testing letter about 1.5 weeks after they received the approval letter from the ins. That was about 2 weeks after I received verbal approval from the ins company. What day did you receive ur approval? With the holiday yesterday maybe that slowed everything a little. I have my final pre-op appt on Monday the 3rd so wondering how long it will be for a date.

I received my verbal approval on the 17th, and my actual approval letter the next day on the 18th. I guess when I look at it that way, it has just been a full business week. Lol. I can't help but be excited to move forward

Is it this Tuesday? I was thinking it was the 2nd Tuesday of the month. I'll be out of town for work so won't be able to make it. I'm planning on going to a group this month but just not sure which one. Thought it would be nice to see a friendly face .

I'm from Southren Indiana in Austin, just got approved Friday find out Monday what will be the surgery date will be

[mitz 221]

I will be having my surgery by Dr. Cooper in Seymour, he does the robotic surgery , I'm just glad it will be near home. Does everyone go through the robotic surgery?? Still waiting to find out when, I been trying to do this since January . I think they ran me every test the could think of, heart Cather etc etc etc. all my steps are done. But at the same time I wonder if its the surgery that will help me loose the weight and keep it off, and help me subdue my hunger. I hate having a plate stack up high with food, eating it and filling full but five minutes later I'm starved . I just hopes it helps with this, I been fight my weight since 2000,

Hey hey! I'm from Scottsburg and Coop did my surgery too. Due to scheduling, he didn't use DaVinci on me. Schneck is a wonderful place. I actually ended up having a leak (not his fault or mine, it was a faulty staple) and I spent a month in 2N. The nurses are wonderful

[mitz 221]

Omg.. That long in the hospital .. So how are you doing now? How is you venture going on weight and eating ? I been to 3 of the support group meeting at the hospital not counting the one I was required to do.. I'm still waiting for them to call and tell me the date for surgery , I'm wanting to call them but I will wait till tomorrow if I don't hear anything then I will call.
