Hello, Just starting this phase of my journey... Would love to meet others and join a support group... even an email buddy would be a nice start.... I called a Dr and am waiting for a call back.. not sure what I do first... looking forward to the possiblities...

Cheryl, Hi! I am in Jacksonville too! I just sent you an email. There are several support group meetings in Jacksonville. I go to one in the Arlington area. LaWanda is our fearless leader and she is great. I can send you her email address or more info if you would like! Welcome aboard! Kathy

Its me....the fearful, oops....fearless leader. I'll send a person invitation to Cheryl and maybe you and I will meet her this Saturday. I sure hope so. And thanks for this post!!!! La Wanda

I live in Orlando but lived and had my surgery in Jax. Let me know if I can help! I am 6 and a half years out from open RNY. All The Best Donna~

I'm in Jacksonville too and am just starting on my journey. I have an appt. with Dr. Overcash in Ocala next Monday. I am not sure between Dr. Cywes here in Jax. or Dr. Overcash. I am going to my PCP tomorrow morning for his ok.

Cheryl, you have come to the right place to post and find out what's here in Jacksonville. Here's my personal invitation and I hope to hear from you soon: Support Group Meeting - Saturday, July 1st 10AM - 11AM - Bandsters and those interested in banding 11 AM - 1 PM - RNY and other WLS patients All are welcome....pre ops, post ops, family and friends. 7256 Merrill Road We're 4 houses east of the intersection of Merrill Road and Townsend Blvd. - same side of the street at WalGreen's and across the street from NAPA. Plenty of parking next door at Semegon Chiropractic. We have a clothing exchange so if you have anything you want to donate, please just make sure the clothing is clean and bring it with you. If you have hangers, that would be great. On the clothing exchange.....take what you need and bring it back to the house when it gets to big so that the next person can have access to it. We also have a product exchange so bring this consumables you bought and found out you didn't like and contribute to the supplies. On the product exchange.....they are samples. Please don't take a whole container of anything. Take a "sample" (there are zip lock bags avilable) and try it. This will save you money on buying large containers and finding out its not what you wanted. But if you take an entire container, that means somebody else doesn't get to sample that product. Email me for specific directions. Hope 2 c u there. La Wanda
