Hi:
I'm new here.  I have my surgery date for December 3rd.  I'm looking to communicate with people in the San Diego area that have had the gastric sleeve.  Anyone out there?

Hi Traceelynn, I'm not in SD and I haven't had the sleeve done, but I wanted to welcome you to the Cali board. You will find LOTS of support here.

Hi there,

Welcome to the Cali board.  Most of us on this site have had RNY.  I do believe that there is a part of OH that is just for gastric sleeve.  You might want to try over there to find support for your surgery but you can certainly stay here, no matter what surgery you have, it's all the same in the long run, we have to use our tool.  There are lots of people in the SD area that have had WLS, and I am sure that they will welcome you with open arms.

Good luck with your surgery,

Diane

Welcome to the OH Cali Board!! You will find lots of support here no matter what surgery you have!! I plan a San Diego lunch every month, maybe you can attend one sometime, they are a lot of fun!!

I also had the RNY but just wanted to welcome you to the boards.  There are a bunch of great people on this board.

I have a sleeve but I don't live in San Diego any more. I moved up to the Bay Area in '94!



What hospital will you have your sleeve at?
