Just maybe this will happen this year!!!

Jan 02, 2011

Well, here we are a year later, and I have insurance now to cover weight loss surgery.  I definitely have decided to have the gastric bypass instead of the lap band.  I know my PCP is not going to agree with me, but I need to do what is best for me.  I am now on an insulin pump and with the gastric bypass I will be able to retire the pump for good!!!  Have made my appointments for my psych and nutrition appointments, and later this month I will be making my appointments for my stress tests, my upper GI, and an endoscopy.  Have done all  these before so I am not too concerned with having them done again.  Just be glad to get them over with and get on with this process so I can get a surgery date!!!!

Just hope nothing happens again.  I so need this surgery to get healthy!!!  Will keep posting...this site is wonderful and I have been lurking on here now since 2002.  I was scheduled for surgery back in 2003, and had a near death experience right before my date caused me to have to cancel the surgery and I have been trying ever since!!!!  This better be the year!!!

Later!!!
