Default Getting closer (and excited!)

My paperwork has been submitted to the insurance company for approval. I have the 2nd part of my sleep study and my upper GI next week and then all tests will be complete!

The docs and psychologist will meet today to discuss who is ready for surgery and start setting schedules so I'm hoping that I will have a surgery date for the month of September! I am sooooo excited!!!

I've been reading alot on the threads and I just wanted to say thanks for all of the insight that you 'old timers' give us. It really helps to know the different things that can come along.

Just wanted to share what was happening in my world. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Girl I feel sooo good. Surgery was a breeze and I have not had any pain, just gas and pressure. Its hard to get all the liquids in. I am getting ready to go to grocery store now and get some different stuff and my GOD SEND SF popscicles. Girl these have been a lifesaver.
