Has Anyone used the WISH Center in Aurora
I have not used them - but I wanted to say HI!
There are LOTS of peeps in the chicago area - I am sure someone will come along shortly and give you some insight.
have a safe trip over next week and good luck! I hope you get the news you have been waiting so long to hear! you deserve it!!!!!
(I lurk a lot on the main board and have followed your struggles)


Yep - doing GREAT!
Went back to work full time today - and I am a bit tired, but did well.
Getting in all my fluids now and started on soft protiens earlier in the week. I just had a couple pieces of shrimp for dinner and it was WONDERFUL!
Down about 20 pounds already - and I just still can not believe that it finally happened for me!
Thanks for asking - you are looking great too!!!
Yes, I am a WISH patient. I had my surgery 3+ years ago with Dr Rosen. They have a well rounded pre op and PO program. They recently (Jun 17th ish) moved their office to right next to the hospital where they do their surgery. I have not been to it yet, it is also where they hold their support groups at, in the office clinic.
You are welcome. If you have anymore questions just ask. Good luck with your appointment. Are they having you go through a seminar or were you just able to get an appointment to see the doctor? Is it the day long appointment where you see all the specialists, phsyc, exercise, NUT and doc? Keep me posted.
As far as the main board is - summer has gotten in the way of sitting in front of a computer, LOL. I have taken up running so I am obcessed with being outside and doing that. Chris
