Donna -

Congratulations! I'm sure you must be flying right now. We'll polish up another seat on the loser's bench just for you.

All the best,

Barb

YEAH!     MoooooVE  On Over! Thanks Barb

Hey Donna! Wow is absolutely right!  You are in good hands with Dr. Roc Bauman.  Is he going to do the ICV filter?  Have you discussed it with him?  I know it has saved many lives here.   Again, congratulations! many Blessings, Diane

Thanks Diane, there has not been any discussion about a filter, infact I've never heard of it.  I will look it up and find out what it is. Thanks again!

YEA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I hope to meet you at the support meeting Loser  :)

Thank You,  I also look forward to meeting you too.  And WOW you look amazing Congratulations on your LOSS!  Right now I can only imagine how good it must feel.

Congrats to both of you on your surgery dates!

Hey Donna.... it looks like we will be at NorthEast together.    You are a Dr. B patient and so am I.  You have surgery 1 day before me.  How cool.   I found out yesterday about my date.  This is so exciting...  but at the same time...  I am like you....  what do we do next.  I am having the Foubi.  I see you are having RNY.  So basically we are having the same thing.   It will be great corresponding with you and hopefully meeting you.  I look forward to it. Congrats again!  Connie

Connie...I didn't see your reply here until after I replied to your post about your date.  ~ LOL ~  Kim called me Tuesday and when I saw the caller ID I knew that was it.   Really from the time of my first visit with Dr. Bauman everything has happened so fast, and after well over a year and a half I guess I must be in shock, how funny is that.   What surprises me the most is how fast BCBS approved this 3 days not to shabby.  We previously  had UHC and they had a exclusion on the policy so that ended up being a loosing battle.  I thank God for BCBS and My Husband for Changing their policy.    Anyway Connie we'll have to try and take a walk together while were at the hospital, after all that is what were suppose to do right?  LOL All the best to you
