So, I have been jumping through the insurance hoops since February and today I had my EGD. Things are getting closer and more real for me and I've been lurking on the boards for a while and wanted to thank all of you for the insights I have been getting from your posts. My name is Matt and I thank each of you for your informative posts. Assuming everything goes well it looks like my surgery date will be sometime in October.

Welcome Matt.. and this place is awesome.. you will find things out that you had no clue about the process. You will quickly become addicted to this site. It has almost completly replaced all my social medias.. lol.. but good luck to you and hope that everything goes well for you!
