The Date is Set!

Apr 19, 2010

Well it's been awhile since I have posted anything. My insurance company denied my request for the RouxNy, so after weeks of waiting, I had to step back and regroup. In the end, I decided to go back to  my original choice of the Vertical Gastrectomy, and self-pay. The paying I'm not so happy about, but I'm very happy about the VG! My surgery date is May 3rd!
Went for all the blood work, X-Ray and EKG today. I also attended a group meeting that LapSF has every month. I met a lady that is 7 years post lapband. She lost 100 pounds, and is very pleased. It was good to hear from others there also that the surgeon is one of the best, and that they are very well thought of. Actually, even the EKG tech said that Dr. Jossart is a very good doctor. So overall, I am feeling quite better about going forward. The next step now would be to start testing some of the protein drinks and get  myself as well informed and prepared as possible.
That's it for now.
