Hi,


To find a group, click on community.  Then click on group directory. I
think all you have to do is put in your zipcode and then a list will come up.

Good luck in finding one.

Topic: RE: so its been awhile and i am slipping
Oh yes, definitely a lot going on!! Sorry to hear about your job and insurance ... don't you wish we could just ALWAYS pay a $20 co-pay for visits!! Why must everything be sooo damn expensive! LOL

I think that logging your food and exercise definitely sound like a good plan. I've been logging since the day after my surgery and lately I've been hitting a huuuuge stall. When I look at what I eat now compared to what I was eating in March/April it really puts things into perspective.

There isn't much we can say that you don't already know and so that we won't sound like we're beating a dead horse - lol. BUT I wish nothing but the best for you and hope that everything will be going better for you and you get back on track!!!

(((HUGS)))

Hi,

This meeting is no where near Canton.  This meeting is in Beverly which is North of
Boston.  Maybe 1 hour away.

Sorry

Topic: RE: MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SURGEONS LIST!
You sound like a great candidate to me!
I went via Boston Medical Center and had who I think is the best surgeon in the Universe
Dr. Hess for my surgery.  I am only 6 days out..but I would move and pay any amount of money to have him do my surgery.  but I am on MassHealth right now and his office accepted it.
There was a lot of problems getting it through though ..it took me almost 2 years.  I started out with BlueCross Blue Shield, lost my job..had Cobra then massHealth.

I am 45 and am 215 but I'm only 4 11 which made it worse..I had all plus sleep apnea that you had.

I'll see what happens in the next year.

Good luck and if you need to talk, I'm here

Hi Everyone from north of Boston.  Even though it says on the meeting page that there will be a meeting on Sat Nov 20, there will not be a meeting.  This is an every 2 week meeting for now.  The next meeting will be on Nov 27

I hope to see you then.
