I'm getting a little nervous!

My consultation is today... in just 5 short hours....

I'm bringing my Husband with me to the appt. so he can be in 'the know' on everything.

I'm glad he'll be there....

I had a really hard time falling asleep last night just thinking of this appointment today.

I'm so eager to find out all the details of getting approved, and all the pre op stuff I need to get out of the way...and see how long he thinks it will be before I get a date!

Wish me luck today :thumbup:

Good luck Brooke!! Let us know how you make out!! :thumbup:

Good luck Brooke!! Let us know how you make out!! :thumbup:

I sure will!

Thanks for the support! :redface:

I hope it goes well! :thumbup:

Good luck, Brooke! I hope everything went OK at your appt. I am a bit envious of you. I went to my seminar on June 24 and I am STILL waiting to be called for my first consultation. I am a bit impatient!

Well, it wasn't neraly as nerve racking as I thought it would be.

This was my first time meeting the surgeon, and he was very reassuring. I went to him because a friend of mine got the lap band from him back in March.

I asked him the list of questions I had and he gladly answered each one with out making me feel stupid for asking it :cool:

He said my insurance is usually very fast at getting approval, and scheduled my phys. eval for Monday and my meeting with the nutrionist for Tuesday!!!

He said from there he sends my paperwok off to the insurance company for approval which they have 30 days to approve or deny but he said his experience with our insurance is that they are very fast often times approving with in 24 hours, he said best case scenario they approve me by the end of next week and my surgery would be about 2 weeks after that!

holy crap....this is a lot to take in, in one day!

It's not only moving forward....it's moving at a fast pace!
