So, I have my apointment with my surgeon tomorrow.....
well, today actually....
He does the roux-y or whatever it is ... the one I saw on the 13th only does Lapband.
I am so glad I joined this site, because he loves his patients to be informed... and know what they are getting into.

Yes the Roux-en-Y. Make sure you are educated about whichever procedure you are going for. It is important to know the 411. Good luck on your appointment today.

Thanks guys!
It went wonderful, and he says I am a great canidate because of family history of health problems. All I have left before my letter is a Psych eval on May 11th [at the latest]. They have a lot of cancelations so I could get in earlier...
And Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Wisconsin is pretty fast and will have it in a few weeks. So it looks like my surgery date will be the first week of june!! If I get into the Psych appointment next week then I can be in there by the end of May.
Woopee!
