I'm on my way...jump:
Yesterday, (3-28-07) I had my initial consultation with Dr. Chasternat, and he was very thorough and explained a lot. He informed me that I am a candidate for the RNY surgery based on my BMI. He ordered my labs and other necessary health assessments. So far I have completed my X-ray, EKG, Labs/bloodwork. I'm just waiting on my Nutrition and Psyh appointment, and then I will be able to recieve a pre-op appointment then a surgery date as long as everything checks out okay. I'm so excited!
