So I'm pretty excited. My insurance requires a few things. 6 months worth of appointments. Tomorrow is appointment 2 of 6. I think they said they would do the EKG tomorrow, and review blood work. Other than that, I have to have a sleep study done, meet with a psych, and I think a separate nutritionist. So looking for a surgery date of somewhere in march or april.

On a side note, I have a neck injury, and am meeting with a specialist on 1/10/20 to hopefully get surgery to fix my neck... though the last specialist said surgery for it is not an option. I'm not sure how this will derail my sleeve surgery. I'm speculating that I would have to recover from my neck surgery first.

Hello and welcome! I had my surgery in Springfield, where will you have yours? I have had cervical surgery and I would think you would want to recover from that before taking a sleeve on. I took about 12 weeks to heal from my neck surgery, but everyone is different. Have a good day!

My neck consult is with Barnes, and sleeve will be done in KC. Thank you for the welcome!
