Congrats to you BethAnn. I pray it goes good for you. I feel the same way. I have been trying this low cal diet for a couple of weeks and haven't done so hot so I'm really scared about how I will do once I have surgery. I hope it will be easier

Well guess what?????? My date got changed BACK to the 23rd.....talk about a roller coaster!!!!

Been all over this app trying to figure it out. A lot of stuff to know. I'm totally new here. I'm due to have gastric bypass April 8th..the Monday after Spring Break uggh Anyway, could've had it mths ago but weather and scheduling conflicted with all the pre-op stuff. I currently live in WV and will be moving at end of May to Fayetteville NC. I am 42, married, and have two children. Last pcp appt had me at 301 abt 2wks ago.

Good luck in Fayetteville.... I hated that place. Our home was broken into several times along with all or neighbors.

Hi I am from fayetteville NC

Hi I am from fayetteville NC

Your from Fayetteville or just ended up there because of the military? I dreaded every moment I was there. My husband was stationed at ft. Bragg for a few years and I refused to live there because I never felt safe. I stayed in Texas until he got out of the army. I would visit for two months per year and the other times he was either deployed or would visit me.

I live on the out side of fayetteville so I am not in the city I live in the country of Fayetteville.

What is so wrong with Fayetteville everyone keeps saying? My husband is already living there on a new job outside Ft Bragg. He is a veteran and we visit Bragg often.

I'm totally nervous about surgery. I feel like I'm about to take a big test and I haven't studied. Weird. My husband had the totally open version of the surgery many yrs ago when it first came out.

The countryside was nice, but I didn't get out there often. In Fayetteville, houses are broken into during the day when they know soldiers are at pt in the mornings. Just compared to where I've grown up, that place seemed so dangerous with peoples fighting pittbulls loose sometimes in the neighborhoods. I would notleave the house without a concealed weapon.

Have you already have a doctor when you move to Fayetteville I have live in Fayetteville all of my life it is not a bad place to live. It would be nice to know someone from Fayetteville to chat with good lucky with your surgery and with your move to NC.

No I don't have a Dr down there yet. The kids and I will not be moving down there officially until they are finished with school after May. I have a 13yr old daughter and 7yr old son. We have never lived in NC before. I was born in Tampa lived there many years until my mother remarried and then we moved to WV her home town near Beckley, WV..I moved back to Tampa after h.s. and my young adult yrs..my husband and I have lived in WV, Ohio, Springfield, MO, Virginia, Dalton, GA, El Paso, TX (Ft Bliss).

I have already done all my pre-op stuff (EDG, EKG, PFT, Psych Eval, Blood work) He has been having me to take Vit D for a few wks now.

It seems like 2013 is becoming a major transformation year for me though. We have ChampVA insurance and have never had a problem with them. But now that my husband is working again the kids and I get Dental and Vision ins too so I've been taking care of pretty much everything. I updated my glasses (bifocals uggh), I've been getting teeth taken care of and have been told I need braces soon, I also need CT surgery on right hand. It's all happening so much and so fast!
