thought of the modules done in Alberta.
My Intact for Red Deer isnt until Oct / Nov. they told me that was when the next session was. I have already gone for all my medical appointments, (Heart stress tst, Sleep Apnea which I am now on a CPAP machine, belood work and more blood work etc..) Nobody will give me any other information on what I can do in the mean time to prepare for my intake. I dont even have a clue as to when I can predict or expect how long it will take to have surgery. How many months / years away. In the meantime I am seriously considering Mexico...I know I have to pay out of my pocket but it is only a fraction of the cost it is here and I have heard so many people from all over canada have gone and are very happy with the whole experience before and after.... I just dont want to wait years to have it done here Im 49 years old I want to get my life on track ASAP. CAN someone give me any predicted time line? ALSO WHAT IS A MODULE you are all talking about. Thans so much I appreciate all your help

hello tracey I had my surgery done in Edmonton waiting now on revision , but I was told red deer is not a long wait I know your perhaps wanting this fast as most people are , but I want to say these modules are classes you take to understand food and yourself better , one of the modules is call craving change and that book is so worth it , it explains ways to help you before and also after surgery in understanding why you perhaps crave certain foods , my suggestion is please take the modules if there offered , they will help you in the long run ,,,, before I would actually consider surgery in mexico I would speak to the doctor in red deer clinic first , explain your feelings and concerns , You maybe surprised on how fast your surgery may take and save yourself a lot of money ... Your weight wise clinic should have the modules you need, now maybe they just give you them to read im not sure , but I know I took all 10 classes twice once for me and I went back as support for my son also I learned a lot from the module teachings to be very honest , there a very important part of this process
Thank you so much morning and you are absolutely correct I have a patience issue and I need to learn how to manage that. I know Mexico does not have any programs before or after surgery and good luck getting a doctor here to set up a post op program if you do go to mexico so I am just going to carry on and wait BUT I will call that number for modules and see what it's all about....THANK YOU AGAIN I REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR INPUT
i just hate to see you pay out of province , I was actually told by another woman from red deer who lives in grande cache now that her wait time was only 6 weeks so maybe just maybe you wont have such a long wait , I was also told even when you claim your medical you don't get the full amount credited to your taxes as it usually exceeds how true that is im not sure , but I wish you all the best im sure you know whats best for you when its all said and done you will just smile more because you will be happier your doing something better for your health not counting the fun it will be to shop for new clothing lol
