kheter55, I'm impressed how quickly you got through your program, I first saw my surgeon in July 2016 (and I did not have a 6 month program with my insurance). Many, many appointments but........ my day is Jan 25th. Good luck to you and all the other Jan 19th's.

yes, I'm surprised too. The whole month of December was full between Pulmonary, Cardiac Drs., a nuclear stress test. all the classes and support group meeting, the nutrition visit. Tomorrow I have my endoscope, Tuesday the primary Drs clearance. Thursday to the dietician at the supper market for a tour and then I'm done. I am only 11 days till surgery.

My first appointment was 9/22 and all the evals,egd, and classes were in October. Then after my third follow up appt in Nov I was submitted. I think my Drs office shoots for the 3 months and then the 3 week insurance approval.

everything got approved right away and I only had to do one nutrition class, it made all the difference.

Hi. I'm the 25th January so nervous.

I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I want everything to go smoothly and wake up with my sleeve done. No complications. I don't want to wake up and be told he couldn't do it for some reason. I am a worrier. I just wish it was the day after surgery right now.

One week from today is the big day. Can't believe just 7 days till surgery. Nervous and excited. The countdown begins...

Blessings to you all! My consultation is Monday. How long before the actual surgery from step 1?

My 1st visit with the surgeon was 11/15/16 and my surgery is on 1/19/17. It all depends how many nutrition classes your insurance requires. Mine only require one nutrition class.
Does anyone know if you fail the nicotine test will they cancel surgery.

Most surgeons will yes. Mainly due to the healing that smoking will prohibit.
