Hi all,

Well, as many of you know, I am pretty new to this. I have done my research for many months and have now booked the doctor appointments, including the first meeting. Today I met with my gastro doctor. I was extreemely nervous because I knew he could make or break my new journey. I have Barrett's Esoghagus from reflux and I knew that it could be a deal breaker. My doctor had no concerns and gave my thumbs up and a smile. I was so really relieved. Next week, I have an appointment with my general doctor on Tuesday and my first meeting on Wednesday. My next meeting for a different doctor will be on April 5th. He is the one that I am leaning toward. Wish me luck all!:ohmy:

Hi Tren, and welcome. I am glad to hear you got the approval from your gastro doctor, that is good news. Keep up posted on how things progress.

Thanks Susan, I am hoping for good updates. However, so far so good!

Wow! Congrats Tren on getting the "go" sign :scared2:. Getting the preop stuff done is a breeze. I didn't have to go through a lot of tests though. The best was getting to talk to the nutritionist. I really felt like I was on my way! Good luck and keep us posted! :scared2:

Hi All,

Well, I just met with my general doctor today and he too gave me thumbs up. Two down. Now I need to go to my first seminar on April 6th. Wish me luck!
