I am getting very, very excited....I have three of my requirements done - 1) consult with surgeon, 2) a letter from PCP re: co-mordidities and past diets, etc. and 3) the required basic seminar at the hospital!

Monday morning I start with the dietatian, Tuesday is the pychololgist and Friday is PT, pulmontary, blood work and EKG......then all the paperwork goes to my insurance.....I'm dancing here.......

Good Luck, and keep us posted!

Hey i know how you feel...seems each thing is one step forward and for once in my life all the steps are leading forward!!!! I have to have my psych eval done and then im having pre-op tests done on the 26th...surgery on the 2nd!!!!

Exciting huh?!?!?!

That is so great that they give you a surgery date right away. I was told that once the insurance says it is a "go", then they will schedule the date. That's O.K., but I am so anxious I can barely sleep at night.
