Surgery went great. So far no problems. Very happy with this surgery. My advise is do it. It's something you have to get use to but I am much happier now then I was eating everything I use too. I am about 5 weeks out and feel soooooo much better.

I'm from Northern Virginia!

I have not been to any of the meetings yet, but I will be attending the one on the 16th. Do a lot of pre op folks attend those meetings?

Hi Fab@Forty: I'm at the beginning stage. I participated in a webinar last night with Dr. Elariny at INOVA Fair Oaks. I really enjoyed his presentation. I've done several. I've been putting this off for over a year and now its TIME! I have an appt. with him in a couple of weeks. So I hope all goes well. What stage are you at? Have you already submitted your paperwork...who is your insur. carrier?
