Date is set/but still have not mett the dr!
 Hi,well  my date is still the 17th of August I still did not meet Dr Bellows at  all,ive been up there  now several times and was told that that visit   was to meet  dr bellows,what a joke,im thinking at this point I wont  even meet him.Venessa  has me going to see my pcp every friday now to  weigh in and have blood sugar checked,that has to be faxed in each  week,she says that  if my sugars are  not good they will cancel  also,well I told her then go ahead cause they are never good thats why I  need surgury..Then she says that she is gonna call me in a hour or so  with the name of a appetiet suppresant I can  buy at sams to take and we  go towards cafeteria so i CAN EAT  SALAD SHE SAID THE SALAD BAR IS GOOD  THERE.,so anyways I fell in the hall way on a wet spot hurt both knees  and  fronts of shins that are already huge and swollen from my  lymphedema,hurt my belly on the  left side cause it  hit the floor also  and both ankles twisted the right one very bad.There was staff there that  saw me fall and they made me  not get up and  put me on a  stretcher,brought me to er which logically you thik they woulda tended  to me fast but the nurse said it was a 6 to 10 hour wait  leaning  toward  10 hours ,I said well Ill just see how i feel in morning and see  my local dr.So they loan me a wheel chair cause  standing on my foot   hurts.We go eat then go back and see vanessa she says that if the foot  in broke  they will not do surgyry (ya know any excuse) Still does not  know name of appetite suppresant,so we go to hotel and I  got ice on  right foot and took ibuprophren.When I get home yesterday I had exrays  done and  it looks like its not broke but  just sprained bad,friday ill  get report from  radiologist back.I hurt like a  make truck  hit me.But  very glad its not broke! Anyone know what they appetite suppresant  is  from sams she is  thinking  off,(she  waiting on a bariatric person to   call her with the name)  
 im starting to think NO ONE meets bellows before surgery.. its seems that he must not have time to meet his patients before hand... and that they "accidentally" make our preop appt on a surgery day...this place is seriously becoming more of a joke everyday.. After talking wtih crazyduck and my current issue im having i am realizing how bad it is.i hope you get better soon
 
 im doing a lil better
well i went for my initial visit in feb
i had to go back in march because i used their nutritionist. i didnt know at time i didnt have to use their nutritionist so i had to go back and go over that with them
the visit in march is when i had all apps done so they sent for approval
you have to go to cardiologist about a week before your preop appiontment
i dont think i had to go between those
if you have ALL your appiontments done and if they do the pattern i went through
you will just need to go for your initial appiontment and then your preop
