February bypass buddies?

Just got back from my final appointment with the surgeon. Received a date of February 13. They will submit my information to my insurance company, but I have no reason to think I won't be approved.

Looking for any buddies February and/or surgery day twins.

February 15th club!!! Welcome!!!!

What is THE tastiest pre-op protein drink concoction you've made?

Mine is hands down my banana and cream Isopure drink made with 1/2 Fairlife fat free milk and 1/2 sf vanilla Coconut Milk with added powdered peanut butter. It tastes like peanut butter nana.

Now to finish the previous thought. I called back to schedule my presurgical blood work. Lady#2 well I don't see YOU in the surgical schedule so don't count on then. Sat and cried for 5-10 minutes then since it WAS Social Security day and I had bills to,pay I left the house. Couldn't just sit there and wallow in my misery and besides I needed a change of scenery. When ibreturned home 2-3 hours later there was a call on my answering machine for surgery scheduling, immediately called them back only to find out they had left at 4pm and wouldn't be back until Monday at 7am. Have been stewing since then and imagining all kinds of scenarios. Am I still having surgery the 15th? Only God in Heaven knows and he hasn't sent me " a word of knowledge" as the TV evangelists say. My guess is between then and St Patrick's Day but then WHAT DO I KNOW?

I'm sure you're good for the 15th - unfortunately it seems many times these silly systems take ages to talk to one another even though they're all in the same hospital. I would be extremely upset as well so I know it's easier said than done, but sit tight and try not to stress. Tomorrow you should get some answers :) Hope you're still in the 2/15 club, cause it's the best place to be! (Sorry Fluffy. 2/20 can be second :))

2/9 here.
