Sorry msk, different Buffalo :-(. I went to the University of Colorado at Boulder. Mascot Buffalo. But it's always nice to remember home. Glad I reminded you of something nice :-)

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I called today and they just said pending and reminded me that they have 15 days to reply bariatric surgery approvals. I am worried my 10/29 date will be pushed back a week or two. The Dr.'s office said if no response by Friday we will have to postpone. :(

Hopefully you will get your response by then! Wow my doctor would not set a date until the received the letter off approval from insurance I got it faxed to them that's how I ended up getting my date.

I would keep calling and let them know you already have a set date apply some pressure!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
