Dr. Evanson is doing mine. They called me on a Wednesday to set up a time for all my test and they only do them on a Friday . They had that Friday open so I took it. I had them all done in one day in Logansport. I got a call 12 days later with a surgery date.

Oh wow that's great!! I just love dr evanson. He did my lap band surgery even though I had to have it moved to no fault of his or mine. It slipped! So I would have no one else do mine. I praying for a may surgery!!

Today is my last day to what I want. Tuesday morning is my surgery. I'm not going to lie I'm scared. I know I'm doing it for the right reasons. My health but it doesn't make it any easier.

Good luck. Keep your eye on the big picture.

Tomorrow is my surgery. I feel like I'm going to a funeral . Saying good buy to my old life and when I wake up from surgery. I will be walking in a field of butterflies. With a new start in life. It will be a lot of work but I'm worth it.

Well I had my surgery. The first day I had problems waking up from all the medicine. Everything went well.

I'm still at the hospital on day 2.

I've been getting sick. Having problems keeping water down.

I'm suppose to go home today.

The staff here are great. They been doing everything they can to help my pain and sickness. Walking is the best medicine.

has anyone used Indiana Medicaid Insurance for WLS? and also is it hard to get approved with Medicaid

[

I did. I had my surgery one month ago. It takes some time but there is

a list of thing's you need to complete . From start to finish it took me about 7 to 8 months to get my approval letter. It is so worth the work. I have lost 40lb my first month. I feel so much better.

I have Indiana HIP. I started the process just a little over 2 months ago. Everything done, just waiting on surgery date.
