hey imvalso in ny goung for the bypass in october where will you be getting your sleve done

@@bornthisway622 and Yvette:

Good question for both of you, I will be getting my surgery at Lennox Hill Hospital in NYC. Where will you two be getting your surgeries?

Ahhhhh i wanted lenox hill my bro had his there 13 yrs ago but im going thru montefiore in the bronx was your process long @@LuckyStar

thanks for asking @bornthisway622, Montifiore is a great Hospital. To answer your question, I started this process in October 2014, but I didnt have any requirements as others do for insurance purposes; once I decided I was really going to go through with the procedure, I completed my paperwork and exams in a very short amount of time, all together I was prepared in about 3months. Because of my insurance (Medicare) I did not have to wait a year or 6 months, not even 3 months, this was just the time it took me to decide and do research. With Medicare one can complete all exams and requirements in one month.

Wow that was fast wish i went that route but im already in so ill stick to it its crazy im scared and excited i just dont want problems at the end with my insurance so hopefully all goes well i just want to tuck my shirts in again lol @@LuckyStar

@@bornthisway622, I feel you when you say you want to tuck in your shirts, I would like to wear belts and be able to paint my toes without getting all bent out of shape (this among other things I struggle with b/c of weight). I am also scared and excited, I have just two days to go before my procedure (Monday morning).
