So I'm posting in hopes to find more ppl that in the same time frame of the journey!

My Big date is April 15, 2014

With Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana, Mexico

Can't wait to hear about your upcoming journey!

I'm not scheduled but I'm hoping to get mine done in April also

Got the call yesterday and my surgery date got pushed up 1 day till April 8th and they gave me a time to be at the hospital it became so much more real!!! I still haven't told my mom yet I plan to do that in a few weeks. April seemed so far awash but now that's it's March I have a feeling this time is going to fly by. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time!!! :-)

My surgery date is April 8th with Dr Lopez in Mexico anyone else around that time?

I got my date! April 24th!!!! I go for my EGD on the 10th and also start my 2 week liquid diet on that day. It is definitley getting real now!

What's an EGD?

An EGD is the same thing as an Endoscopy I believe. It is where they run a camera down your esophogus into the stomach. I think it is to check for ulcers and acid reflux damage?? Not 100% sure.

Finally! Got approved by insurance. Now have preop testing and can schedule. Anybody going in April in Indiana? Could use a buddy.

My date is 4/21! I'm excited and nervous!
