I finally got my date for surgery!!!! So happy and nervous at the same time. Anyone else being sleeved on April 24th? I can't believe I only have two month left!

I'm being sleeved on April 24th too. Insurance took a matter of only a few hours to approve my surgery and that was on February 24th. I have my final blood work/physical with the nurse practitioner, appointment with the anesthesiologist, and 3 hour pre-op class all on April 17th, a week before. I am so happy. I've been on my low carb diet for almost two weeks now. They require a low carb diet two weeks before surgery, but I started two weeks ago, just to get a good 7-8 weeks head start.

Yay for us!! April is a beautiful month, more ways than one now. It's our new birthday

I think it's normal to be nervous. Even though I'm excited as hell, I'm getting increasingly nervous as my date approaches. But the good news is, from what I've been reading, is that they give you something to relax you before even wheeling down to the OR. So that's something to look forward to!

I'm scheduled for 3/31/17 started my 2 weeks pre-op today

[laGata15 41]

I got the phone call today after being denied 2 months ago because my A1c was 9.8! The doctor said he would approve me if I got it down to a 8. And here I am 2 months later , 20 pounds lost and lowered my A1c to 7.9 lol. I got to work on it.

I am now scheduled for April 17th, pre op testing April 5th. Will be on a 10 day liquid diet I hope I make it lol. After 6 long months of test and dr appointment this is finally happening! I am excited, super scared and nervous. Good luck to everyone!

Good luck everyone

I am nervous as the date draws closer, but I am ready for this. I am happy to have found this online group because I learn a lot from each of you and what to expect.
