Saying Hello

Hi everyone,

I am new to this site and I just wanted to do a shout out.

I am a hopeful gastric bypass patient. I already had the lap-band but due to complications and lack of results I had it removed in June 2012 6 years after having it put in. Unfortunately at the time I was not heavy enough for the insurance company to approve me for a new WLS. Now 10 months later I am ready for RNY. I am still waiting for insurance approval and psychiatric release (that a whole other post). Hopefully by July I will have all of my ducks in a row.

I am looking forward to getting to know you and hopefully getting some great advice along the way. I want to hear the good and the bad, I like to know exactly what I am getting myself in to.

Feel free to drop me a line at any time.

Emily

Hello Emily,
You will get lots of helpful information on this site.

Hello Emily! I am a band to RNY. Just fresh out the gate (4/4). I will be on the look out for any advice, but so far things have gone pretty smooth for me and thus i haven't much to pass on.

 I will cross my fingers for a July date for you!

-Mandy

 

Welcome, and don't forget to explore the Revision forum as well. There may be some helpful suggestions from others that have had a revision from band to RNY.

Best of luck to you!
