Hello,

My name is Tera and I am currently living in Richmond, CA and have an appointment with my Kaiser Surgeon next week on the 14th.

I have struggled with weight all of my life. I am a diabetic and I am really hoping to help both of these issues with this new tool Lap band. I have heard good things and I think it would help me a lot. Has anyone have information on how it has effected their diabetes? I am type 2. My current treatment includes a few oral medications and a few injectables insulin. I am very excited to find this site. I am new to Cali and have not a lot of family or friends here. I am looking for new friends especially those who want to try being supportive and wants to exercise and eat healthier etc.

Look forward to meeting everyone!

Thanks,

Welcome. So where are you in the process? When did you go to orientation and yep I am sure the lap band will help with all of the above.

Do you know which surgeon you will get?

Hi There,

I have a meeting with my Surgeon Dr Im tomorrow. I guess we will see what happens then. I hope it won't take to long to get my appt with a case manager.

I will let you know what I find out tomorrow.

Very Excited!

Tera
