I've been approved!

Hi all, I have been lurking around the site for a while now and attended the meeting at MSC at Baptist this month and got a chance to sample all of the great treats that Susan and Shelia created. It was really great to see how much support there is out there!  Well, I got word yesterday that my insurance has approved the procedure and I went by today and filled out the wonderful psych eval form (that was fun...lol) and I am now waiting my appointment with Dr. O'Brien.  I am so excited and scared at the same time...does that make sense? I'm sure you all know what I mean.  I'm looking forward to getting to know you all and I know you will be a great help to me in the coming months as I embark on this new adventure. Thanks in advance!!! p.s. I don't have any pics yet...I'll have to work on that this weekend, I guess. Not one for taking pictures of myself.  dj

congrats on being approved.

Welcome aboard and congrats on the approval. This board is awesome for sure, I have only been here a short while and love it for sure. I feel the same way about the pics, but I am trying to get better. Hope to see more posting from ya.Cheryl

CONGRATS

Congrats DJ on the approval. That is great. Yes, it is completely normal to have so many emotions right now. Just make sure you if you think of any questions to write them down to ask the Dr (or us on the board). I am sure you will lots of questions as these next few crazy weeks go by. Hopefully you will get a quick surgery date and will be on your way to a more healthier you. Congrats Agian.  By the way- a lot of us in the Nashville area try to meet for lunch once a month. It just so happens that tommorrow (Saturday) is our day this month. You are more than welcome to come along and meet everyone and ask as many questions as you want. It is at 1:00 at the Rivergate TGIFridays.

Congratulations DJ!! Let us know when you get your date. You are going to love Dr. O'Brien. He is so easy to talk to. Are you planning on coming to the luncheon tomorrow? I'm sure everyone would love to meet you. Susan

Congrats to you.
