my 3.5 hr appt

Nov 16, 2012

so they took like 9 viles of blood, ouch!

then i met with the psychologist for 1 hour and at the end she said im a great candidate

then i met with the nurse and we talked for an hour and she said im a "very fit overweight person" whatever that means, lol. She also said im an excellent candidate.

Then i met with the baritritritian Dr for an hour and she also said im a great candidate.

Then i had EKG which was fine

then that night i did a sleep apnea test over night, which i havent gotten the results for yet.

So now on 11/27 i have another 3.5 hr appointment where i have to take a psych test and then meet with the psychologist again.

Ill also have to meet with a physical therapist and take and endurance test

I'll also find out the results of the sleep apnea test

then ill meet with the Dr again to get my lab results

and whatever else i have to do

basically my insurance said that if every professional agrees that im a good candidate for WLS then they will ok it, so after all of the referals we will send out a request to my insurance company, they have up to 1 month to approve or deny, the dr said it never takes that long though. Then she said after the get the approval they will schedule me about a month out. So im expecting to have my surgery in January =))))))
