Topic: RE: How did you get...
Thanks for the info, but I tried to do this and it wouldn't allow me to put in a surgery type and actual surgery date. I think I'm in the new profile instead of the old profile and the new doesn't allow me to put in a date. It just says, "I have a surgery date".
Topic: RE: Ready to go!
My appt went great today. It still hasn't hit me that my surgery is so close. I think after I do my labs and Xray this Thursday and my Dr. gives me the final go ahead I will begin to get nervous. I am frustrated now because I am still awaiting the status of my short term disability. The insurance company says that they will only take 31 days and that has been since Dec. They are making me so mad. You got lucky with being able to hit all your procedures at one time. At least those are taken care of. Well it has been great talking to you. I haven't quite figured out the website. I don't know how to tell when someone has responded to a post that I have written. The only thing I did was remember your name and come back to it and view if I received a response. I don't get any notification that I have been responded to. Is that how it normally works?

Hi Tammy,
how'd post op go? I was hospitalized in January with chest pain, so they were able to use all my tests such as xrays and ekg from that date! I had my post op last Thursday, whi*****luded my blood work and hospital pre admission paper work! I'm psyched! My coworker, who is also a good friend of mine is having surgery on the same day that I am. She is a bundle of nerves! We work in a hospital up here in Connecticut and the lap band procedure is now becoming very popular. Your going to be just fine! Please let me know how you are!

Hi Tyra:
Go to your "My Account" tab at the top of the page, scroll down to "General Info" and "I've got a date". That is where you put your surgery type and date etc. Best of luck to you! Patti

Hey Everyone.
Looks like I'm the second Amanda to join the board. I should have my surgery in March, I just found out I'm approved and have two more steps before I can get my date. I have to go to the Diet and Excersise class and then meet with the surgeon. Today I go to the Diet and Excersise class, and should meet with the surgeon in the next week or so. Anyway I'm so excited about having it done in March. My daughter's birthday is March 21st. I look forward to getting to know everyone
