    Sorry for the late response Ellapearl.....I had my pre-op appointment on 9/29 and I also met with my dietician. I started freaking out when I was reading the consent forms about the risk but my surgeon did a great job comforting me. I'm ready....I only have to do the clear liquid diet the day before surgery.

    Hey folks. I was given my surgery date 10/17/2016 last week. Super excited but a bit worry now. Waiting on my final insurance( NYC HEALTHFIRST) approval as well. Just had my medical clearance appointment today and was told my EKG showed an incomplete right bundle branch block and my labs showed low Iron deficiency as well.So I was immediately scheduled to see a cardiologist this Tuesday. It's been a long journey and I know it's just the beginning but I'm really worried that it's a new setback. Please any advice?

    Starting weight:225lbs March 2016

    Last weightin: 210lbs October 2016

    6 month weight in: 15lb lost

    Yaneth the exams are very thorough. You will likely be approved by the Cardiologist. Your surgeon is using an abundance of caution and you definitely want that. I have a friend who has a left branch bundle block and that's her "norm" so know you are being well cared for. Good luck and keep us posted.
