I’m waiting for the yay or nay from my insurance Company and if so, I’m hoping to have a date soon. Either February or March. We’ll see! Would like to keep tabs with you [emoji4][emoji4]

Hi linita, I'm waiting for call-back,or letter from my surgeon's office. Tenatively early-mid March RnY. Lets be friends, and you can ask me anything also. I'm in Central Ohio, 50 miles from Columbus where my surgeon and hospital, Mount Carmel, are located.

Sad story, check out my post Change Your Hospital, but I will not let this thwart me from my goal. Basically i got kicked to the curb by Mount Carmel, their 3 surgeons unexpectedly decided to not perform my surgery. The excuse I was given I do not accept. I have reapplied, 3 different bariatric programs, 1) a seminar on March 9th 2 )a seminar on March,10th 3) an appointment with an intake nurse April,10th . Of the 3 at this point I am leaning towards program #1 but will hear them all out and make a rational informed decision. My paperwork will all be transferred to the program of my choice, I did make sure of that. I will land upright, I will have my surgery and I will make those sons of Seabiscuit the horse eat their words. Under this meek mild Puddycat lies the heart of a lithe strong puma , golden and sleek. I will roar in victory when my day comes!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
