I'm from NWI if anyone else is close by, message me! I would love to have a buddy to compare stories/journeys with. Thanks and good luck to all!

@CrazyBeautifal31- hi! We are practically neighbors. Did you end up having your surgery? If so, who did you go thru? I am super nervous about the approval process now...

That's great! I'm at the stage of waiting to see the Nutritionist on Weds and then to see if insurance will approve. From what I hear, that's the worrisome part. I sure I can be on the losers bench as well as I am tired of being miserable.

Well saw the NUT today, all good, saw the MD again and he ordered an EKG, which I did right downstairs and all good, have to have a mammo which is Friday morning. Md called me a little bit ago and said he pulled my bloodwork from another ms and while he only has a couple things to test for, acid in my stomach and b12 plus a urine test, he said it shows I am pre diabetic!! I was pissed that the dr who took this lab work for me several months ago never told me that!
