I'm a little confused...
Hi Terry, That's okay, about the misunderstanding. I do that all of the time. I guess we'll have to keep supporting each other by OH.....but at least we're supporting each other somehow....lol.
I have had 3 psych visits with the Psychologist that MPlan says we have to go through.....Dr. Jones.....that's from Clarian Bariatric though, not St. V's. I think our nutritional class is only 4 hrs. I know that we don't have to pay anything for other surgeries as far as co-pays......my sister-in-law had a hysterectomy and didn't have to pay anything at least....but I'll probably try to call MPlan to make sure. I still have to go to Psychiatrist at the Bariatric Center for some reason.
You're lucky....getting to have laproscopic instead of open, but I'd much rather they do open since I'm sure I have scar tissue to work with. Have you been trying protein drinks or anything? I haven't because alot of people say that your taste will change and you may not like the one you choose anyway. One of the guys in our support group did bring some in one time to sample and the vanilla tasted pretty good, but the chocolate tasted chalky. Good luck on your RNY and keep me posted also. If things work out, we should still have our surgeries pretty close to the same time. If they won't let me have surgery until the first of the year, then I'll have to go to St. V's because my insurance will probably be changing to Advantage. Talk to ya later, Candy
