Ok What now?
So I know that my referral has been sent to HRRH and it's only probably been less than a week since it has been. So what do I do now? In all honesty I wanted to call them at 8am sharp this morning but I didn't cause that would be NUTS. I've been trying to distract myself with shiny things online, but I've grown bored of that. So my long and drawn out question to you guys is what did you do to while away the time from referral to appointments to surgery? Cause I feel like I'm going to crawl out of my skin with excitement... Is that normal?

I don't know either - but I'm in the same place. I'm going to do my very best to just be quiet and good and let them do their job.
I'm not saying I'm going to be successful at that. ;)

The hardest part is waiting and wondering.. Once you get your orientation date things will start moving rather quickly from there. Like Birdie said research and prepare. Here is HRRH bariatric #1-416-747-3720..I called to make sure they received my referral and i got date and package emailed to me right away.. Krista..
Refered Jan 15/13..Surgery June 27/13 , Dr Hagan.
Ohh Krista!!! Thank you for the number. However if i get stalking charges pressed against me cause I harrass them to much I will look at you funny;)
