Hi Everyone :)
I am new to this forum! My name is Tracy. I have been on the bariatric waiting list since December 2010 in Bathurst, NB. I took the courage and called August 15th 2014 to see where they were on the waiting list. I was told they were seeing patients from Dec 2009-Jan 2010 and was told I would get a call for sure within the new year! So new year came along and I wasn't feeling good about myself and decided to start Simply For Life (Yes...another time lol). Once morning while browsing on facebook, I seen a post that a friend had posted and made me question where they were on the waiting list!! When I went to chat with my friend, she had just received her call after been waiting only since April 2011. This is when I gave them another call. I was told they had tried to call but there was no answer :( She was able to give me my first appointment which was only 1 week from that phone call...
Finally on March 6th 2015, I had my first appointment!!! On the 12th I seen my surgeon (Dr Yves Semerjian), on the 13th had my sleep apnea testing done and yesterday the 16th had my group information session!! Things are finally moving!! I am physically and mentally ready!! Even have all my Boosts bought...lol...helped that they were on sale at Walmart and Shoppers this week ;)
I have done up a facebook group to help with the transition!! You are more than welcomed to join :)
