I'm on my 6 month pre op jump through insurance hoops at the moment they tell me my surgery will be in Sept 2016. I would like to find someone near by that also needs a little company on walks. I'm in the city.

Where in OK? I'm in OKC and going to Dr Hamilton Le at Baptist Integris. I just started the process and will meet with doc on April 18.

I was going to go to him but didn't like how they are stalling so I chose Dr Keith, he's in Norman. I live in Edmond so it's a little drive for me but they are not giving me the runaround.

So far I have had no real stall. They are busy and BCBS Fed lists them as a center of excellence. Cheaper out of pocket for me. I meet for consult the 18th. Can't wait!

Dr keith, is also an excellent dr. He's the Dr that Dr. Let sends revisions to. So We have the best docs available in ok. I don't know what the issue was in dr. Le office but I'm OK where I'm at now.

Monday should be interesting. I am hoping that I don't have to do the 3 month supervised diet crap. I have sort of been doing it with my endocrinologist. Low carb high Protein.

How did your experience go? Was Dr. Le great? Did you end up doing the supervised diet stuff?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
