Anxious now that 6 mos doc visit is up

Hey has anyone gotten very anxious towards the end of their 6 months supervised doc visit? It's on Thursday and then next week the sleep study and then it's go time with the insurance. I'm so anxious and excited at the same time. Like I felt when I was little and it was December and it's almost Christmas.

I guess because I know that it's almost time and I'm getting close.

Waiting to hear back to see if I need to do the sleep study or not. Where are you from in VA? I just moved to NC 1.5 years ago from Harrisonburg, VA. I would have never even considered WLS if I hadn't moved here. I am still in the "Whatever" mode right now because I know it will still be awhile yet. Just trying to keep myself busy. Good luck to you!

I"m in Richmond area. Good to see another Virginian. Yeah I was in the whatever mode at first and then I got more excited. My 6 month supervised doc visit ended today. Yeah keeping busy eases the anxiousness I've notice. Good luck to you, as well

Question!

Your 6-month appts, were they all 30 days apart? I have a few months we went back into that were longer and on random days.

Thanks!

Yep just about. It was the 1st Thursday of each month.

Unfortunately I am on a seven months track per my insurance and wont be done until June but I didn't need a sleep study since I have a cpap already

I'm in the last month of my 3 month supervised diet. They'll submit for insurance approval on May 2nd. I do have to have a repeat Endoscopy at the end of April. Surgeon found an ulcerated area in my small intestine and a large hiatal hernia. On my meds now for the ulcer. Hope they work as no surgery for me with an ulcer. I'm trying not to stress too much about that, especially since stress is bad for ulcers! On the plus side, I've lost 27 lbs on my own so far.
