Hello,

I haven't seen a July thread yet so I thought I'd start one.

I'm getting banded on July 2 in Florence, KY. :drum: Anyone else out there being banded in July??:clap2:

I;m going to be banded july 18. chicago,il.

Hello there,

Iam due to have surgery on the 16th July. I am from England and Iam having my surgery done over here. I am pleased to have seen this forum as i'ts just more added support but from people who understand what you are and will be going through. so good luck to you all ( and me!) and I guess over the next few months we will all be in contact to tell of our experiences and ask any help off the people who have already been in our places.

Hey Patti, GREAT for you! I bet you can't wait! I am so excited, too, and a little anxious. I have read how many of you have pre-op diets, and tests and all kinds of steps prior to the surgery. That must be for insurance reasons. ?? Actually, my pre op appt is on 7/12, then I will have surgery right away on 7/20! No real time for all those series of steps. I'm beginning to wonder if that is the "right" way. I know my ins. is paying 100%, without going through any red tape. In my mind that HAS to be the reason I'm not having to wait any further.

Hi Roc. I am going to Menorah Hospital on Wednesday to have a complete physical and meet with the Anithesiogoiest( really bad spelling, but the guy who puts you to sleep before the surgery). I hope he will tell me the actual time of my surgery on July 12th. I am glad that they are doing that so that I know I am in good enough shape to get this started. Seems like I have more questions everyday, but get more excited everyday. We will make it this time! Let me know how things are going for you.

Patti C.

Yes, I'm getting banded July 16th. Dr. Olsen in Nashville is banding me. I'm a little nervous as I am on Coumadin and am 66 years old.

Hi,

I'm being banded on 7/18 in Huntsville, AL, although I live about 50 miles north in TN. I'm a little apprehensive about the surgery, but I am also looking forward to it.

Hi everyone, I sort of introduced myself on the pre op thread but thought I would here as well.

My name is Mindy , Im being banded on July 16 in San Antonio Tx But Jorge Rincon MD . Im self pay its costing me $12,000 which includes all fills for a yr.

I love my doc he's amazing.

I cant belive this is almost here. I have been waiting for nearly 2 yrs for the money to get this done. My husband and I own our own concrete company so we have private health insurance , so self pay was always the only way for us. It would have happened before now but we had an employee ( Cousin actually too) who decided to steal $50,000 from us Feb , JUST the time i was prepared to get my surgery ! So that put the surgery off . I find out the Friday after surgery if he was indicted for embezzlement or not , so that will be a nice present LOL

Anyway ..... I am just outside Austin tx Married 7 yrs and have 2 boys, ages 6 and almost 15 ,(He turns 15 the day before my surgery ) .

That's all about me look forward to keeping up w/ everyone.

Love

Mindy

tengal and coltonwade, welcome. Please come join us at the thread titled Lucky #7 bandsters- July 07 bandsters. We've got a great group going there, as this thread combined with the other thread about a month and a half ago. Hope to see you there.

Hi to the July 07 bandsters! I hope I can tag along this journey with you all. I started researching in Jan of 07 and after all the waiting, I have a date of July 31st. I am so excited, to the point of wishing July was about over. This site has helped me alot already. Any other bandsters from Nebraska or other nearby states?
