Hello again!

Well, I told my cardiologist this morning that I would like to go ahead with the lap band surgery. He will be finding me a surgeon and scheduling my initial visit.

Now that I have made the decision, I would like to know, how long (approx) between the time you first met with your surgeon until you had your procedure done? (anxious much...lol)

I am very excited and scared/nervous, but I do believe this is the right decision for me personally!!

Thanks for listening

Hi and Welcome....

My caridologist found my bariatric surgeon for me, too! I saw the surgeon in late February and had my surgery last week - so mid-August.

BUT, the insurance turned me down FOUR times before they finally said yes, and I give the girl's at the surgeon's office FULL credit for their full-bore assault tactics of submitting and resubmitting. Otherwise, I think I'd STILL be waiting.
